~~~Bluebird in the Bath~~~


During those extreme hot day's a week ago I could hardly keep the bird bath's filled, but the Bluebird managed to have enough to have a dip and a splash!!
I was setting here at my computer when I saw two of them, and of course when I reached for the camera one must have seen me , and flew of !!


This one remained !!
You can tell he looks a little leery,but after a few seconds he went for it!! 

Oh feels so good!!



On of the cutest things to watch is a bird in the bird bath, don't you agree!!
"Splish-splash I was taking a bath"!!

    Wow I would love to capture that moment too. Bird watching is so relaxing and entertaining at the same time. It's one of my past times.

    I'm your new follower, I'm glad I found your blog through PomPom.

    Now why would a Bluebird fly off when he spotted you Grammie G? You do yourself an injustice. If you came knocking on my door you know I would just rush there to greet you and not crouch down behind the door pretending not be at home like I do to those Jehovas.

    Looks like you had a few thunderstorms too with those big, nasty grey clouds. Don't get over excitable though and start jumping in any puddles or bird baths to join those Bluebirds.

    Good to talk again my old buddy and for both our sakes lets hope winter doesn't arrive too soon.

    Keep clickin and bloggin - you know it makes sense.
