His first words should be "I'm a lucky bird!" as he's so lucky to have found a home with you.<br /><br />(I realize I've pretty much gone missing, but now that husband is retired, I'm hoping to get back on track.)Pamelahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02853793959909472712noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3099877799576584609.post-72935494221657124852009-06-02T00:34:19.648-07:002009-06-02T00:34:19.648-07:00Mildred, thank-you very much!

I am glad to be home, and our weather is unseasonably sunny and warm, so I shall be taking advantage of it here too!<br /><br />Joni, I think the bird saw the bird bath and said, " A ha, here is a bird lover ! " And I hope a bird does not land on you, it is a real bother to have to wear wet pants home!<br /><br />Shellmo, I am getting pretty fond of Bob. I am trying to teach him to say his name .<br /><br />LindaSue, I think you're right! When I told him something adopted me he got that " what now?" look on his face and when he saw Bob, he smiled! I was going to give Bob to my daughter and her family but my husband said I should keep him. And no, the eggs seem done for but just in case I put 2 under the banty hens. We'll see.<br /><br />Nancy, what predators do you have? Have you lost any chickens to them?<br /><br />Noble Pig, I can just picture the beautiful gardens with a blue bird bath at your winery , and that a lady you know made it...I hope you post a picture of it.<br /><br />A.Joy, now I am even more excited to see the budgie exhibit at the Pt. Defiance zoo Wednesday!<br /><br />Timi, YES! Hawk is a Magyar Viszla, and we love him!<br /><br />Thistle Cove Farm,thank-you for your kind words, yours is the very first blog I ever read, and surprised myself by commenting on! Quite awhile ago now. You do need a bird bath. I have several all over the property and each and every one is used by birds. The pond is too. We seem to have more birds around here than I have ever seen anywhere except the zoo. The eagles and vultures even frequent our place...lambs are tempting tasties.<br /><br />Jennifer, glad you are back on-line too! I have had budgies off and on for years, this little Bob has caught my heart, though, he has a little something extra in the personality department and it hasn't hurt his appeal to be so taken with me!<br /><br />Southern Comfort, I will take good care of the new ducklings. They are in my sunroom now. They have a good chance at survival as a whole because their parents have managed to survive 2 years of coyote and raccoon attacks and there has to be something genetic in the ability to survive that when 2 big flocks of ducks did not.<br /><br />Mary, thank-you! I am glad when my husband is able to relax by the pond , he works long hard hours and often it is raining here when he gets time off. It was a nice Sunday for him,and me too.<br /><br />BT, thank-you!We call them budgerigars too, and in fact , our local zoo has a big budgie display . My daughter, her 4 children and myself will be visiting it this week!I have very much enjoyed your blog and your beautiful gardens!KathyB.https://www.blogger.com/profile/13076933273610590290noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3099877799576584609.post-80097037478614602322009-06-01T19:20:45.820-07:002009-06-01T19:20:45.820-07:00How could I have forgotten your gorgeous new bird ...How could I have forgotten your gorgeous new bird bath?

What a fabulous post this is. All those treats, I enjoyed every one with you. We would call your parakeet a budgerigar! How strange that he adopted you!! He knew you love all things animal/bird.

Your name is the one I always miss if I don't see your comment and you/yours are remembered in prayer. <br />The blue in your garden is lovely; I think I'll have to buy a bird bath. We have running water for the birds, thanks to the livestock, but I'm thinking a birdbath brings their joy closer to the house.<br />Thanks for the idea!Thistle Cove Farmhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15722295191884810953noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3099877799576584609.post-52215666160554713992009-06-01T10:32:43.603-07:002009-06-01T10:32:43.603-07:00I like your blog and your pictures!

Love this post - your trip away looked just wonderful but there is NO place like home. So sorry about the duck eggs being abandoned - no chance for them huh? Here is it warm enough to keep things going for a long while even when the mamas are not setting.
