Nice list. We have most of those birds here which I can watch from my window at work.

Thats a pretty big variety. I can hear Cardinals, often see Robins…but we have tons of rabbits. I’m not kidding, downtown Chicago has all these wild bunnies. I was taking pics last night.

Fun list.

Here is mine:

Oh, I love birds! We have cardinals, robins, hummingbirds, sparrows, blue jays, black birds… because we live in the country, we see all kinds of creatures, birds, rabbits, squirrels, possums, raccoons, sometimes even a deer!

Happy TT, and thanks for visiting my blog!

Thomma Lyn on May 24th, 2007 at 12:49 am

I like spotting Robins… reminds me that Spring is definitely here .. Great list idea!

Sue on May 24th, 2007 at 1:28 am

that’s alot of birds!

Janet on May 24th, 2007 at 1:56 am

Great list….I have a pair of owls that I like to watch! Thanks for sharing!!! Happy TT!

sobeit on May 24th, 2007 at 2:05 am

Thanks for the list! We don’t have the wagtail or the magpie here, but we do have some other gorgeous birds like indigo buntings and a few bald eagles in winter. Happy TTing and have a great weekend.

This is great. I love the little blue tit.

Judy Callarman on May 24th, 2007 at 3:18 am

My poor cats… the bluejays are back and scolding them something awful. And I really must have a talk with the woodpecker who’s mistaken the metal thing sticking out of our chimney for a particularly stubborn piece of wood.

Sounds like a machine gun — Lovely to wake up to lol.

Have a good day!

Emma Wayne Porter on May 24th, 2007 at 9:41 am

I see a few of those on my walk to work to. I always love watching the flocks of migrating geese, but they aren’t around yet.

Happy T13

Crows are goodluck so make sure wave and talk politely to them. For real.

Rhian / Crowwoman on May 24th, 2007 at 12:02 pm

Wow, so many! Ummm, proud of myself for reading the list through because I’m terrified of birds!

Tilly Greene on May 24th, 2007 at 12:29 pm

LOL. This was great. I just went to the sites and played the songs. I now have five cats clustered at the speakers. How am I supposed to work? Thanks for sharing those links. I’ll use them again to pester these cats.

This Eclectic Life on May 24th, 2007 at 1:35 pm

Interesting list!

Ctina on May 24th, 2007 at 2:09 pm

I like watching birds as well. The common ones that I see are white breasted nuthatch, tufted titmouse, cardinals, mallards, downy woodpeckers and starlings.

chelsea on May 24th, 2007 at 4:59 pm

I occasionally see a mallard and some gulls, not sure about the rest. Lately I’ve been watching a gaggle of gosling’s grow up on our lake

Jerry on May 24th, 2007 at 6:32 pm

I’m a birdwatcher but never heard of the Blue Tit. Had to go look it up – pretty bird!

Is this a UK bird only?

My Thursday Thirteen is finally up.

Barbara on May 24th, 2007 at 6:38 pm

Wow! That is quite a variety. I saw a cardinal, two doves, a red-tailed hawk, three crows, and a Jenny Wren. )

I really love birds.

Titania Starlight on May 24th, 2007 at 8:12 pm

Hey, thanks, just Tuesday a friend and I were trying to figure out whether a particular kind of bird we see every day on our walks was a blackbird…thanks to your list, now I know it is!

I usually only see Cardinals, BlueBirds and Pigeons around here…oh, and sea gulls and ducks…

Karina on May 24th, 2007 at 10:32 pm

I love that the sounds are included! The common gull is a familiar sound around here too.

Sword Girl on May 25th, 2007 at 12:18 am

Wow, I might actually be able to identify 4-5 of those birds!
Great TT idea!

Qtpies7 on May 25th, 2007 at 3:23 am

Love the list. I only walk from upstairs to downstairs for work in the morning so I pass very fews on my journey.

Thanks for visiting my TT

You’d think being a rock “chick”, I’d have some insight as to being able to distinguish one bird from another. Nope

I do like to watch them, though. Sometimes on the wires by the power plant there are hundreds of birds perched. At the same instant, they all just take off and fly away, too. It amazes me how that happens and how they are communicating with each other.
