Gorgeous – I’m ready to preen with them!

I sat on a bench and watched them for a little while. I was surprised they hung out with me for such a long time!

Just lovely! I wish I could ‘be’ one of them on an afternoon such as the one pictured. I love that loose feather hanging out in the grass…did you bring it home? I like to collect feathers. 🙂

I didn’t bring it home! 😦 But I do have some Blue Jay feathers I picked up the last time I was in Wisconsin.

Very vivid colours, looks magical. I thought you might have used a zoom to get that close to them!

No zoom needed! The birds in Hyde Park are quite accustomed to people so they barely flinch when you walk by them. 🙂

Lovely. They understand patience I think.

I agree! We could learn a thing or two from them!
