I just saw a female cardinal ...
« on: July 22, 2009, 03:24:21 PM »
 ;D   I always thought the red ones were females and the brown ones male .  but its really the other way around. I would have taken a picture but opening the garden gate would have scared her away. Its nice to see cardinal once in while instead of the sparrows, I havent seen the male cardinal in while though... I was thinking about making a bird feeder, but im afraid it would invite the squirrels to come hang out. I like squirrels but just not in my garden. lol

and i saw  a pigeon fight the other day. I don't know if they were fighting over the female or the nesting area...

I have two wood pigeons that live in my garden and they are obviously mates.  Today a rather well groomed male appeared and decided he'd try and do the nasty with the resident female and quite a scuffle ensued.  In the end I had the open the kitchen door and tell the intruding male to 'oppit which gave the neighbours a fright, as they had no idea who I was shouting at.

I'll take pictures if that Casanova tries his luck again.
Don't put off until tomorrow, what you can put off until the day after.

There is an exception to every rule, apart from this one.

Angry sex is normally better than make up sex.

One time I looked in my backyard to find a Red-Tailed Hawk perched on the wall behind my house. I went outside to get a closer look at it, and possibly take a picture, but it flew away when I got within 20 feet of it  :-[

My parents used to have eagles nesting in their property.

As for female cardinals,, you need to talk to the Church about that lmao
I keep my standards low.
That way im never disapointed.
