No photo but...
In our garden there is a little robin (rouge gorge in French) that has become tamer and tamer. He seems to prefer me to Mrs Faz. When I was splitting logs he came closer and closer until I was almost treading on him. Last week when we were having lunch in the garden he came and sat on my knee.
I hope Mrs Faz remembers her camera at lunch today.

What a beautiful photo, Rikita!
Baz, that sounds amazing! Please do try to get a photo. ((Maybe Mrs Faz catches the robin in the act of pooping on your knee))

Yesterday the robin didn't appear. Today it was too cold and misty to eat outside.

That's a nice robin picture, Baz.
Riki's bird is a Greenfinch, larger and more uniformly colored than a goldfinch.

Welle, your last pelican photo reminds me of the time I was in the Everglades National Park and practically had to step over the pelicans that were flopped out on a pier, blocking the way forward.

Pero, that's amazing. Here in California we have a lot of Pelicans and sometimes (especially in the water) they get to within a few feet. I've never had one not get out of the way though.

Herring gulls do this here. they actually attack people if they want whatever it is the people are eating. (well, it's relatively rare, but still... )

Some things I never get tired of watching. Birds bathing is one of them.

Owls are some of the most photogenic birds I think. Hard to take a bad picture of an owl.

That very last owl (a Great Horned Owl) looks mean. I like the other owl playing hide and seek, and the pigeon and the wren-with-a-shoe are priceless.

As common as they are, ducks are some of my favorite birds
