Like a Desert











It only takes a little guidance from an adult ... and a thirst like in a parched desert for Baby Magpie to hardly leave our backyard!

I think Baby Magpie has permanently moved in. Not sure where he sleeps ... above the pool?

He is soooo sweet and looks so fragile and delicate balancing as he drinks.

Poor little mite... have the parents kicked him out?

That's one fat boisterous baby Miladysa, nothing delicate about him HAHAHHAAA. The parents have tried to kick him out but he still harasses them for food when they visit. He’s bigger than they are put together :)

I don't get it, I already came here and left a comment! Where'd it go? Anyway, I was droning on about the big baby get his own fluids or something.

Now c'mon Anony, you're putting gin and tonic in that bird bath aren't you! My maggies won't go near the bird bath. I'll have to spike their punch!

Hmmm, I guess nectar and ribina aren't that far off gin and tonic for birds Baino! HAHHAA Let me know what happens if you do try something new :)

I bet the parents are out at the bar now that baby's on his own!

Anon, I thought of you today ... I saw a red-tailed hawk, only it was *completely* white. Looked, acted, appeared to be a red-tail, but must have albinism because its feathers were totally white. SO cool! Nearly ran off the road. No wonder Eli won't let me get a sunroof for the car, he knows I'll birdwatch with it!
