House Sparrow

These tiny talkative birds get their name from their habit of hanging around houses. These two must be on an adventure!


A tiny sweetie.


They are not sparrows but large finches introduced from Britian!

Is the storm over yet? I thought you said another one is on its way?

It's still looming Ces ... this storm has hail stones! We have had storms for a couple of weeks, it's the extreme ones that are scary and we are still expecting another extreme one!

I can hear THUNDER RIGHT NOW!

OK.... We have sparrows here too. At last a real bird..hhhehe. Not all those fancy things with strange colours.... These must be Canadian sparrows. I recognize one of them....
We already have stamps on eggs here... Eggggoooo would be very proud to have a new tattoooo. It only tells: best before "date"... :) Egggoooo would be "Best before June 24th 2987" .... Mwhahahahha! And Mamzell Princess NEVER EAT BIRDS!!!! Hhehehe She's just teasing. She prefers flies! YUMMY!!! Take a pic of the hail!!!

They are BRITISH FINCHES MerlinPrincesse! You want me to go out into the hail!?! They say the hail will be 'small', but for the last couple of years our hail has been the size of golf balls. Maybe small is small egg sized ... or marble sized ... which ever, they both hurt when pumulting from the skies above!

Have you think of takin' a pic from inside by the window?
So Britts have invaded you too? :)

merlinprincesse said...

Have you thought... blah! Not practicing English enough those days.... Techno-babble of my Sci-Fi movies is not enough... :)

No, I would never think of taking a pic from inside the window which just looks like a hose on muddy glass MerlinPrincesse. Besides, it's DARK out there! The Brits are responsible for the spawn with a light complexion. Although, this one is a sweetie :)

I took pictures through my office window but I was taking a picture of the traffic accident or congestion, not birds...oh wait yes, I once took a photo of the hawks flying outside my window! Not very impressive at all. My other choice was to go to the rooftop where the birds roosted, yeah right!

Our British BoiledEggInAdeckchair is marching!

Our doors and windows are covered in mud Ces. Cleanup time again!

She is extra cute, and have even more cuties under my wing. The birds after the storms (not sure if all the storms are over yet) have moved here with lots of babies! Earl is happy thanks to you Perriette :)
