Love the image of the one with the fruit berries!<br />BTW, I still got the WebRoot WARNING for your blog only...I just went ahead and bypassed it, but I am still wondering why.

I mean I don’t really understand why anyone who has any other source of food hunts at all, but even if I understood hunting I can’t see why this little guy. Aren’t song birds protected in those countries. I guess I just learned something.

My father, when he found out could've easily beat my brother to a pulp if my mom didn't stop him. He was grounded for a long time & had his gift taken from him. Didn't bring the bird back. This kind of story always breaks my heart.<br /><br />On the other hand, those in B.C. are a chosen few who were dazzled by one of your birds...awesome.<br /><br />Thanks so much for sharing your post & beautiful birds with us at I'd Rather B Birdin this week.

Sadly they are supposed to be a delicacy though I have never seen them on the menu!!!!

It is sad people are not able to just enjoy seeing the birds, why hunt such a small bird? It can not be for food? Thank you for linking up and sharing your post. Happy Saturday, enjoy your day and weekend. I want to thank you for all the visits and comments on my blog this past year. I am looking forward to visiting your blog in 2019. I wish you and your family a very Merry Christmas and a happy New Year! eileeninmdhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00070309645796725309noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4526180646938954660.post-10295695709236449372018-12-21T20:58:01.328+00:002018-12-21T20:58:01.328+00:00I hope the bold Frenchman feels good after shootin...I hope the bold Frenchman feels good after shooting his bird. You are always anxious to receive news of the birds you have banded, but not as a result of this kind of primordialism. We promise not to do the same thing to the Fieldfare that found its way to British Columbia<br />Incidentally, Phil, we are starting to get tracking data on some of the Barn Swallows we radio tracked, with the farthest news so far received from the Colombia/Panama border. All the best to you and Sue for the holidays. DavidDavid M. Gascoigne,https://www.blogger.com/profile/17229638811027153569noreply@blogger.com
