There was a brief pause in the rain today and during that pause the garden was full of birds, flitting around all over the place, eating as much as they could before the rain started again
After yesterday’s cacti and birds today…I’m thinking of birds that nest in the saguaro cactus! 🌵
I did a search of birds that live in cacti.
“Common desert birds include greater roadrunners, Gila woodpeckers, and Gambel's quail. Northern goshawks, yellow-eyed juncos, and Mexican jays”
I go off on tangents all too frequently!
That's wonderful, Sue! I like how you managed to capture two of them- one sitting (beautiful colours and markings) and the other in mid-flight (a great fan of open wings!) I love seeing your birds! Your goldfinches are so different from ours. Fav
Beautiful birds… the European goldfinches are much different than the ones I see at my feeder in the US/Georgia. Nice to see the two birds… one with wings in motion and one perched. Nice!
