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 bird in the air is pure freedom
Let the soft animal of your body love what it loves

Young female Eastern Blue bird asking her dad for more food. I just watched him feed her, and I don't know what his thinking is. Is he tired, or just ignoring her, or just wondering what kind of mess he got him self into. They sure act like humans.
These birds were not being very cooperative - they kept moving during the 25-second exposure even after I asked them nicely to stay still :-(
The birds stand on the sticks overnight and when the sun comes up, they fly off for breakfast. This shot was 30 minutes before sunrise.

Northern Gannets are monogamous and mate for life, very much like albatrosses. Pairs form, and renew their bonds, at the breeding colony, called a gannetry, which may contain thousands of pairs in close proximity to each other. Young birds also return to the colony in their second or third year, forming “clubs” of birds that rest together and begin to learn the local fishing routes. Males begin to claim a breeding site in a colony in their third or fourth year, shaking their head side to side frequently, biting the nest site itself, and stretching the neck toward females that show interest. Clashes between males over nest sites can be intense, with bills locked and much pushing at the cliff edge; injuries are not uncommon. Once partnered, male and female greet each other at the nest site each time they reunite, the males shaking the head, the females offering the nape for the male to nibble. They also engage in so-called “mutual fencing,” wherein they face each other, often touching, calling, shaking heads side to side as their bills clack together, bowing, and finally preening each other’s neck. Both parents care for and feed the young, taking turns on fishing excursions that may last several days. Both sexes defend the nest and chicks aggressively against other gannets, using threat displays such as jabbing with the bill.
"The birds of paradise,
With wings reaching free and far;
Their singing never dies,
Though centuries go afar.
Their longings are for peace,
Knowing things of worth;
Man is only what he believes,
From the day of his birth.
The forest and each leaf,
Are there for reasons too;
Some may be so brief,
Others stand longer than you.
Change of time will make,
New growth from the old;
Around the brook and the lake,
Colors we cannot hold.
Clouds will come and go,
With clearings in the sky;
Just like a breezing blow,
Suddenly - to start, and die."

"the acrobat"
original 3K file here:
This bird joined me at my table in the garden at the Le Petit Palais in Paris, France. He stared at me as I stared back and then posed patiently while I snapped this shot.
Somebody's daughter, a friend
In the night in the dark in the cold
As she walks far away
Nobody's watching
Drowning in words so sweet
Mild is the water
Caught as a bird once free
I don't mind
Hope is a distance unreached
Ink on her skin incomplete
And the faint sound of friends
As she neared to the end she had peace
Nobody's watching
Drowning in words so sweet
Mild is the water
Caught as a bird once free
I don't mind
I don't mind
Where does her start go from here
