We were sitting in her backyard, admiring her regulars, when a huge flock of colorful parrots flew overhead and landed in trees in her neighbor's yard! She said they had been coming around for a couple of years, and an article in the paper said they had "escaped" from a nearby zoo.<br /><br />Nancy in IowaMom Lhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08173057786790186340noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2192284109825219343.post-11205786354057662702013-10-17T13:18:46.738-07:002013-10-17T13:18:46.738-07:00You have so many more really colourful birds over ...You have so many more really colourful birds over there than we do here.

We've got bluejays, finches, hummingbirds, robins, and a few others that I have yet to identify. It's really funny to watch them interact with our chicken. Sometimes 4 or 5 birds will fly down and surround the chickens until my flock chases them back up into the trees. I wonder what it's all about. Territory wars, perhaps?Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04866770615559515437noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2192284109825219343.post-14343074499802955722013-10-15T12:14:26.481-07:002013-10-15T12:14:26.481-07:00What a grand new hobby you have taken up, good to ...What a grand new hobby you have taken up, good to know what nature you have in your backyard,and show appreciation.My favourite bird is the red Robin xjabbotthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10676807234825122277noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2192284109825219343.post-33255186254983700102013-10-15T12:09:32.914-07:002013-10-15T12:09:32.914-07:00What a fantastic and colourful collection of birds...What a fantastic and colourful collection of birds you can watch.
