Birds of a Feather (Skywatch Friday)
As the saying goes: "Birds of a feather flock together," and that sure was true of these little birds.
Against a cloudy-bright sky, they were enjoying the scarlet-leafed and berry-laden shrubs next to the Old Depot Museum this week. While I only see two in the photo, many more flew away just before the picture was snapped.
Anybody know what kind of birds these are? They were smaller than they appear here.

Happy Skywatching!
I wonder how long our colors will last? Each day is as beauitful as the last.

Beautiful shooting, finely balanced colours and sharply focused bird.
ReplyDeleteNice photo! The birds looks so happy among those lovely red leaves.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful capture... Love the scarlet leaves... don't have a clue what kind of birds they are, but they are precious perched there in that pretty tree.
ReplyDeleteI really love this shot... Very original...
ReplyDeleteThey're sitting in crape myrtles I think and they look like sparrows to me but I'm no expert on either front. I like this, I guess birds of a feather...
ReplyDeleteI'm not much on the names of birds or plants but I love those pretty red leaves.
ReplyDeleteRR: What a wonderful capture of a neat sky with the trees and birds.
ReplyDeleteSometimes they think they are in hiding when we see right through what they think they are hiding behind. You did good.
ReplyDeleteWhat a very pretty picture. Thanks for sharing it.

ReplyDeleteSparrows?
ReplyDeleteBeautiful photo.
I think they are sparrows. I love the way the foreground is out of focus, focusing the eye on the birds.
ReplyDeleteOh, so cute!! And beautiful leaves too.
ReplyDeletethey look like sparrows.. brilliant capture!
ReplyDeleteWonderful picture. The color is so inviting. The birds do look like a type of sparrow but couldn't tell you for sure.
ReplyDeleteyou did a great job on this. :)
ReplyDeleteWhat I want to know is what kind of bush is that? Love those leaves.
ReplyDeleteRegarding the birds, I think they are house sparrows but not sure. Try googling that term followed by clicking on images and see if you think I am right.
Your photo is wonderful!
ReplyDeleteHave a wonderful weekend!.
