♫Three little birds

Pitch by my doorstep

Singing sweet songs

Of melodies pure and true

Mexican Bird of Paradise

Northern Red-billed Hornbill (Tockus erythrorhynchus). Hornbills are noisy, conspicuous birds easily distinguished by their bold black and white feather patterns, accented by long, colorful bills and patches of bare skin around the eyes or throat. Their first two neck vertebrae are fused to support their large bill. Samburu National Reserve, Kenya.

Conservation status: Least Concern

Birds of prey, or raptors, include species of bird that primarily hunt and feed on vertebrates that are large relative to the hunter.

Male northern cardinal bird.

I almost only see these colorful birds in winter. Then there are several couples who visit the bird tray every day and eat lots of sunflower seeds!

A strange bird at the feeder with an attitude.

A major crop, so nothing great. Thanks for looking and happy week.

Bird

The Great Egret was chosen as the mascot for the Audubon Society because back in the 1800s this elegant bird was hunted to near extinction so the egrets feathers could be worn in ladies hats. It is a reminder that our beautiful birds need to be protected and preserved. And seriously don't their feathers look so much better on them.

Thank-you to all who take the time to comment on my photos, it is greatly appreciated.

Stay well my Flickr friends <3
