Two Bird bloggers and a Rainy Day

Howdee all,

What happens when you get two bird bloggers together on a rainy day?

First we drink Birds and Beans coffee..I brewed Scarlet Tanager for me and Chestnut sided Warbler for Kathie.

If you are at all concerned about Birds and Habitat..please drink Bird Friendly coffee.

Kathie needed some help with her Windows Live Writer issues so we worked on that.

If you don’t use Windows Live Writer for blogging I suggest you try it. Free download on the link above.

We shared Ideas and information.

Check out Kathie's new blog..Kathies Birds

We looked out the windows of Homey at the birds coming to the feeders.

Kathie was happy I pointed out the song of the White-throated sparrow, Kathie just moved back to the area from Arizona and birding here is new to her.This Grackle couple below……make me happy and sad at the same time..

They are the only Grackles here at my feeder, seems like most of the Grackles around have gone south…or somewhere else. These two hang out together..the one in the front has a broken wing and does allot of hopping about. '

I wonder the relationship between the two…Mother taking care of a young. Young hanging out with Mother that has a broken wing, or are they a couple?

Whatever they are..I wonder if there is anything I can do to help the injured bird…Should I capture it and see if it can be helped, should I just let it alone and let nature take its course?

What are your thoughts? It was a good thing it was a rainy day…Kathie and I got allot of work done inside..If it was sunny I am sure we would have wanted to be out birding.

As it was, when we had enough of the computers..

We took an evening walk.Through the neighborhood.As the sun was setting…Kathie gets a few photos..While my baby point and shoot gets dark, blurs in the evening light.
