🐦Bird 🐦Therapy🐦

🐦Bird 🐦Therapy🐦

Just love birds and butterflies and gardens. The birds bring me hope and company when lonely. They are always near. Their morning song brings the greatest joy to my soul. Their flight is wondrous, their calls and tending to their young and work in communion - brings me hope, life purpose and joy.

Oh how o wish I could fly ☺

@Adge I've planted bottlebrush and gravillia to attract birds to my garden. I've only been here for a year so they are small atm. And only becoming acquainted with the locals.

My partner and I moved 2 weeks ago, and yesterday I saw a couple of galahs on the nature strip of the place next door. Where we used to live, we saw a lot of galahs and cockatoos.

My favourite bird of all time is the eclectus parrot - they are just so beautiful! If I could have one sitting on my finger or my shoulder for a while, it would make me so happy.

They are delightful @Former-Member and @Maggie utterly beautiful. A bit like rainbows, one cannot but smile when one sees a rainbow in all it's glory.

Thank you all for sharing. @Shaz51 lucky to have such delightful visitors. @Adge we had a blue budgerigar when we were quite young, friendly little thing.

No birds here to get photos of though. Have a lovely tomorrow.

Good Night @Former-Member I was supposed to be asleep as I have an early rising.

Take good care of you while I am away. You do a lot of good on the forum.

Re: 🐦Bird 🐦Therapy🐦

@Former-Member Aren't they gorgeous!! I love the colouring of them, especially the females.

No new bird sightings lately, although we do get a few doves around here, which one of my cats love to watch - I think he'd chase them if he could! We have heard a kookaburra here, but I'm not sure where he was.

I haven't seen that bird before! It is beautiful though.
