My Weekly Bird ABC

I have to admit that today's letter,the 'U' gave be some trouble.

Since we don't have any 'U' birds,I needed to think of something else.

This is what I came up with,I will first show you some

Usual birds.These are seen on a regular basis.

The Blue Jay is indeed a true regular as we have them all year.

I am thankful that we see them often.Such color will brighten any day. Another Usual bird is the American Robin.

These birds do leave us in winter but are quick to return in early spring. Just so you don't forget about winter,here is our winter Robin. This last winter at least three robins stayed with us. What a treat to see them all winter. Today the weather is quite warm,so to cool things off, here is a winter Blue Jay.

Another Usual bird is the Black-capped Chickadee.

in the coldest of winter days the cheery call of these birds warms the heart.

Here is a final look at our mama Robin. She is tenderly tending to her babies.

On the flip-side allow me to show you some Unusual birds.

This past winter Jake and I had the privilege of photographing

some Eurasian-collared Doves.

According to all the maps they should not be in our area.

I do believe this would qualify them for the Unusual category.

As with the Mourning Doves,these birds look so soft and gentle.

You can learn a great deal about God by studying His creation.
