Enjoying Warm Air and Sunshine

Ernest and Hadley, they have been spending the past couple days outside, enjoying the warm air and sunshine. They seem to love it outside. They are busy little birds, always moving and rearranging things. It is amazing to watch them work - always fascinates me how their instincts kick in and they know just what to do.

On The Wings Of A Dove

Have you ever wished you could hitch a ride on the back of a bird and fly along on the hope and faith of a bird? I have. I do. I thought about this today when I saw a Dove perched on the bird feeder pole. Think of birds flying, they never hesitate when spreading their wings and flying. They travel light - no baggage, no fear, no nagging what ifs, (yes, I am a big “what iffer”.) Just imagine if they took into account all the things that could go wrong…I envy their “no worry” take on the world and life. They don’t worry about whether their belief is the right one, if they are doing things right, or whether the path will be the right or wrong one - if only…

The Hemingway Pair

My Zebra Finches, Hadley and Ernest Hemingway

The little basket in the left corner is where they sleep, all snuggled up together - so cute. The antique bird cage is one of my flea market buys from Germany.

“His talent was as natural as the pattern that was made by the dust on a butterfly's wings. At one time he understood it no more than the butterfly did and he did not know when it was brushed or marred. Later he became conscious of his damaged wings and of their construction and he learned to think and could not fly any more because the love of flight was gone and he could only remember when it had been effortless.”
