So many birds I love seeing and hearing them
Mary MacADNski: I love them too. They are making their spring calls now, looking for mates.

Must be cold...they are all freezing and falling off their perch.

[grin]
Mary MacADNski: Swooping birds are such a common countryside sight that you really do get lost in watching them. It is warming up now and the snow is almost gone.

Steady Mary - don't crash!
Mary MacADNski: I am easily distracted and do find it hard to keep my eyes on the road.
The next thing you know there is bird muck on your windscreentongue
Mary MacADNski: Isn't that the truth!

hope it is not a power line
Mary MacADNski: It is a power line. Birds sit on them all the time. I think they like the humming.
I think everyone seems to do the birds on a wire shot from time to time smile http://davidwilkins.shutterchance.com/photoblog/The_Birds_/
Mary MacADNski: I've got a quite a few in these archives as a matter of fact.
Great capture Mary
Mary MacADNski: Thanks, Pamela. Quite a simple shot.

This scene looks so musical Mary.
Mary MacADNski: I gave one of these a musical title at one time.
I do like this Mary, the line of birds on the line are obviously a bit braver than the other three.
Mary MacADNski: They were the first. Eventually all (many more than pictured here) took off in a wonderful swoop.
Hahaha, such a great shot!! All lined up or busy to, what seemingly looks like, falling off!!
Mary MacADNski: There were many more birds on the wires. These brave birds were the first to take off.

LOL.. it would be good fun sneaking up behind them and pinging the wire! smile
Mary MacADNski: It would never happen. They are too smart for that.
I expect it is Mary. Looks like you have a few stops along the way.
Mary MacADNski: I do stop along the way quite often and even take detours sometimes on the way home.
The lower bird does really look as if it's falling smile Nice capture.
Mary MacADNski: They were soon all gone....

Keep one eye on the road while you make these great shots Mary....i would like it very much if you were still around to keep your pictures cominggrin....petersmile
Mary MacADNski: I do get distracted but only with one eye.
Love this picture, didn't know birds could fly up side down ;-)
Mary MacADNski: They whirl and swirl - acrobats!
