Hi Chris, Welcome to my Corner of the world! The Sparrows are so funny to watch. I love our house and gardens. It is a small city house with a small city yard. Each year we remove a wee bit more grass. We have been remolding the 1950's Ranch for 29 years. We are slow but sure people. I rather "took" to the camera! I find I wok a bit and play the rest of the time! Thanks for coming over. ~Q~
Hi Deb, We can have a party with the birds! It was kind of you to share Corner with your friend. I do have a few bird friends that come by every day. As the seasons change the gardens change. Once Winter is officially here I will be looking at doing my indoor gardening more. So far I have not invited the birds in. I do think it would be nice to invite the butterflies in. ~Q~
Hey Dave! Nice to hear from you. Sparrows are so funny! I think of them as the "clowns" of the bird world. Last week when the rain/sleet was coming in I had lots of Sparrows on the table feeding. I was doing some work in the office and heard a, "thump". I went to the dining room and saw Cooper's Hawk down, on the table. He recovered somewhat and slowly flew off. He left a little Hawk on the dining room window. All the Sparrows were spared from being Hawk's dinner. I think he flew in too quick. I noticed today when he flew over he kept his distance from the deck. Sparrows are save. ~Q~
