This Redwinged Blackbird really was not an angry bird , just very expressive.
For Macro Mondays - Board Game Pieces
One of the Monopoly games we have have is the Monopoly 'Empire' version. One of the playing pieces is Angry Bird, photographed on the Angry Birds site on the game board.
This beautiful Blue-winged warbler was not one bit happy having his image taken. One could say that he was a rather "Angry Bird" and very displeased with this photographer. :D Please view large for best experience.
Thank You for Stopping by and Visiting my Photostream~!
I think this must have been where Angry Birds games started. Cute little things really.

While spending the last of the evening sun near Lake Tohopekaliga, in Kissimmee, Florida we lucked out and found a male snail kite doing some evening snail fishing.
The Snail Kite is a bird of prey with a very particular appetite: it feeds almost exclusively on apple snails, a freshwater mollusk that occurs in Central and South Florida wetlands including the Everglades. The bird's curved beak is slightly off-center to allow it to easily extract the snail from its spiraled shell.
-Rostrhamus sociabilis
I was at the Desert Botanical Garden and came across this male house sparrow atop a cactus. He was dancing and puffing p and squawking, "I am OUTRAGED". He and the Mrs. had built their nest in a saguaro đ” and she probably told him to go get rid of that human.
How dare you! You cheat!! Glowering. she glares at you, disapproving of all entitled people who have no idea how to behave, especially when it comes to social distancing.
And who is she? Some viscous young bird of prey? No she's a fluffy little starling chick. Yes, honestly, looking down her beak at me.
It's Friday, and there's a bird, sitting on a fence, he's waiting.
Happy Fence Friday, Saturday, Sunday, Macro Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, or Thursday. - View Large if you can :-)
I like these jays, they are so smart, but they squawk, if only they could sing :-)
Now Mike, a raven relative who spent a few months at the nearby rescue center could stretch those vocal chords. The handlers had to learn to keep quiet around him as he learned their names and the word for food. The handlers were worried he'd get too domesticated and show up on peoples doorsteps asking for food rather than settling back into the wild. So handlers and visitors all had to be quiet in his presence. However, ever the showman, Mike would imitate the calls of the birds flying past.
Given time, i am sure Mike would have been able to say, "Feed Me Leroy" and maybe have his own youtube channel.
I like these jays, they are so brave.
In spring we go into the forest to look for owls. It's been our best time to find them as they must work around the clock to feed their chicks and get them airborne. They seem to return to the same nests each year, which is a help. The ones we visit ignore humans, but do not like dogs. So we see them hunt and watch the chicks climb trees and jump back down.
Enter the jay.
When the owls are out hunting, the nest may be quiet, but when the owl enters jay territory, they are easy to find, as the noise from the jays is incredible. The forest erupts with squawks. The owl seems to be able to tune this out. We watched an owl, surveying the landscape with a scrub jay, perched right next to the owl, squawking straight into his ear. It reminds me of how the crows and the ravens mob the raptors and chase them across the sky.
Jays can be so polite.
The scrubs jays appear to give way to the stellar jays when we feed them. So there is much patience, as the stellar appears to be fussy. They will lift peanuts, shake them, seemingly weighing them, and flick it aside if it doesn't feel right. They scatter peanuts all over the place, till they find about five they like. Three in the crop, and two in the beak. The scrub will just pick the first five it finds and is off.
Now we don't feed all day, and not at first light, usually late morning, and mostly in winter. They seem to know this, and if there isn't any food, they do ask. I know some birds will even tap on your window, but the jays are happy to just squawk at us from the tree.
But when all is quiet, and the jays are off doing other things, the little birds come, and once in a while, a flicker will appear. And sometimes, when the feeder is busy, everyone scatters then there is a hawk, right there.

So wie diese Blaumeise (Cyanistes caeruleus) in diesem Moment schaut kann man doch froh sein das sie so klein ist. Man denkt direkt an das Spiel Angry Birds bei diesem Anblick.
Northern Cardinal
The adult male is a brilliant crimson red color with a black face mask over the eyes, extending to the upper chest.
The female is fawn-colored, with mostly grayish-brown tones and a slight reddish tint on the wings, crest, and tail feathers. The face mask of the female is gray to black and is less defined than that of the male.
The cardinal is named after cardinals of the Roman Catholic Church, who wear distinctive red robes and caps. The term "northern" in the common name refers to its range, as it is the northernmost cardinal species known.

One Angry Bird on the feeder and the other in fight.
I may not have time to answer or acknowledge your visit here or any comments you leave right away but, rest assured, I will try to get back as quick as I can. I will thank you now in advance.
We all have that one friend that may look at us a bit oddly when we do something that doesn't make sense. For this Grackle it was seeing a person with a camera pointed at him I guess.
I hope you know that I appreciate your comments and visits although I may not get back to you quickly but I will try my best.
