We were blessed with this little visitor this afternoon.
Isn't he a beauty?
My grandson Luke has said this was his favorite bird since we studied the bird book.
I wish he could have seen him.
At least I got some good pictures of him.
I'd never seen one before and didn't think I ever would.
What a blessing!
Enjoy!
what gorgeous pictures - and a visit is so much better than robins building a nest on my deck every year so i can never use it in the spring - i just might be mean and thwart mama this year - it's my turn for the deck!!
ReplyDeleteWhat a pleasant surprise and a beautiful sighting for you! I love to see colorful birds, but we only have a few that flock to our area in NE Montana. We look forward to the pretty little, yellow goldfinches to return every spring. If we're lucky we might get to see a Bluebird, Bluejay or Cedar Waxwing migrate through.
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing the your picture of this fun little visitor.
Great photos Bonnie, we don't have such pretty coloured birds in Australia, they are more natural tones to blend in with the bush.
ReplyDeleteWhat a gorgeous bird, fabulous photos! xx
ReplyDeleteOh you lucky, lucky girl! My SIL who lives behind me said she saw one last week...but none at my feeder! Beautiful!
ReplyDeleteHey Bonnie - these are gorgeous birds. Your picture is worth a thousand words!!

He is a beauty thanks for sharing Bonnie. I think one could color a bird any color and there would be one somewhere.
ReplyDeleteWhat a gorgeous colour bird Bonnie and you must have been thrilled to see it on your feeder. The nearest we would get to that is a Kingfisher which would probably be a once in a lifetime sighting as even when walking by a river you would count yourself very lucky to ever see one. x
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for sharing your beautiful photographs with us, Bonnie! How exciting to see something you've never seen before. Beautiful pictures!!
ReplyDeleteYou managed to get some great photos Bonnie. Such a pretty bird!
ReplyDeleteAmazing pictures!! Such a gorgeous colour. Waiting for our hummers to return. Water level down in the feeder but haven't seen one yet.
ReplyDeleteMy goodness, you are attracting some beautiful birds Bonnie! I love this beauty too! Wish they were in my backyard. Hugs, Brenda
ReplyDeleteStunning! What a vivid blue and so pretty too.

ReplyDeleteAmazing pictures and such a beautiful bird with such gorgeous colouring.
ReplyDeleteThat is one very blue bird! Great job capturing him! (on film)
ReplyDeleteWow ... just a beautiful bird --- love his colours. Great photos! xx
ReplyDeleteOh how exciting! This is an incredibly beautiful bird!
ReplyDeleteThis is my favourite bird as well. We seem them every year at Rondeau Provincial Park in Ontario and a few times at Point Pelee National Park which is famous for birders - which we are! Lovely photos.
