Baby Bird

Can you see the little baby Green Heron that visited our yard the other day? Click on the photo to see it larger. We watched it for a while and then went inside so that mama bird could tend to it.

I've been painting some more, but nothing is to the point of showing it to you yet. Maybe tomorrow...

Wishing you a most wonderful day!

    How adorable! I was wondering what kind it was. I hope he's ok...he looks so verloren?

    Have a wonderful Wednesday, Silke, and keep cool...I'm up early, as usual, waiting for it to get a little light out so I can walk the boy ;-)

    Love,
    Doris, Gizzy and Middi :-)

    Oh yes, I DO see him! He's in that awkward stage... I not only visited Vicki, I got on her list for a bird nest!!! Are they not the most delightful little things you've ever seen!!! Actually, she is quite delightful herself. So are you, Beautiful One. **happy smiles** Deb

    Oh my goodness! That is just the sweetest thing. He looks so fragile - I'm glad mama bird came by to tend to him. :) Just beautiful!

    Oh I echo Bella! Baby birds with their sparse feathers scare me! I wish it a long life!

    I love baby birds at that stage; the cute/quirky/almost ugly! All legs and beak; they seem to say "Please, let me grow out of this soon!"
    I have never seen a baby heron (we have blue ones) but imagine they are much alike.
    GREAT PIC!!!!

    XXOO!!
