We took a short drive around the Chapman Ranch area, southwest of town, in search for the reported Burrowing Owl. We never found it, but I stopped to get photos of this...
LOVE these bird shots!! So unusual and cool. All lined up straight, and with the hay field behind them. In the first picture, it looks like one bird is on the hay, optical illusion. I think he is perched lower on the fence. Good thing there is no pie crust nearby!!
The birds on the fence reminds me of a local attraction. You can always see the fence there loaded with seagulls. I always like seeing them all lined up
I was always under the impression that the birds perch on wires and fences when there is a low barometric pressure and rain might be arriving soon. Also they usually face into the wind so their feathers don't get puffed in the wrong way, isn't that correct?
Hello Anni, that is a lot of blackbirds. I love the cows and last fence shot. Happy Thursday, enjoy your day!

ReplyDeleteGod forbid....altho, the debate is something they may understand better than we do. What a fiasco.

ReplyDeleteMe too...there is something about birds on a fence or a power line.

ReplyDeleteRain? What's that? We haven't had rain in so long.....lol
DeleteI really had not heard any of this about the barometric pressure and facing the wind. New to me.
Hi Anni, your fourth shot made me chuckle and I loved the cows. All very enjoyable.
ReplyDeleteThanks Denise.
DeleteThanks Felicia
ReplyDeleteThese were such fun. I always love seeing birds on wires (and fences) like that. Plus the cows were an added bonus.
ReplyDeleteMe too Ida, me too.
DeleteIf you give us a couple R's, we could be sitting pretty on the fence, too!
ReplyDelete- The Cows
I can't believe those birds lined up on the fence just for you to take their photo.
