He was still talking and taking to the air and talking and taking to the air on Tuesday. He found a girl and then he played hard to get--and seemed to lose the game. He'll learn!

What a handsome dude. Sometimes, a gal wants the strong, silent type! Lovely perspective on the second shot!
ReplyDelete'Hard to get' never worked on me either LOL. What a wonderful shot of that fellow! And I would love to walk down that lane, on such a day.
ReplyDeleteI adore birds...even greckles get my sympathy for all everyone has to say about them!~hugs
ReplyDeleteSandi
What a lovely country road.
ReplyDeletefun post and story about the bird's possible courting-everything has a story.
ReplyDeleteA handsome dude indeed. I especially liked the country road pic. Took me back to my childhood on the Prairies, driving out to the golf course with my dad. Lovely Sandy!!!
ReplyDeleteHugs, G
Wonderful! The photos look like paintings!
ReplyDeleteAbd that's life!
ReplyDeletepretty bird
ReplyDeleteI think one of his relatives must be hanging out in the tree outside my office building. Loud?? Nah... not much.
ReplyDeleteBut isn't it amazing how your big talker got tongue tied by a lady?
If you ever figure out a way to keep that from happening, would you clue me in? 'Cause the same thing happens to me all.the.time!
Wonder what he was saying : )
ReplyDeleteWonderful shots Sandy. I can hear the bird talking by looking at your photograph. Neat when that happens.
ReplyDeleteGreat shots, I especially like the last one.
ReplyDeleteHave a great week

ReplyDeleteThat appears to be a lovely walk!

Love the story about the singing bird. Great shots. :-)

Gotta love a bird that wants to stop to chat long enough for you to take a photo instead of flying away!
ReplyDeleteI love birds. Nice photos. =)
ReplyDeleteI absolutely love the pathway! Great shots!
ReplyDeleteLovely capture Sandy, bird song is so good to listen to.
ReplyDeleteLove the road picture too, I always wonder whats round the corner at the end.
Have a good weekend
Wouldn't I love to be walking there! Don't you just love the sound of a bobolink?
ReplyDeleteHi Sandy

Nice .. really really nice
ReplyDeleteSometimes all a guy can do is keep chirping for another day! ;)
ReplyDeletebeautiful shot. I love the second one a lot.
ReplyDeleteSandy, I still get locked out by the skywatch main page mr linky.
Birds do sometimes have a lot to say. Yesterday they started in my yard at 4:30 AM and I did not appreciate it. I still encourage them, though with food and nest boxes.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful picture from the bird !
ReplyDeleteBut the road have a great depth ! ! !
Gr.
P-TER
I need to get to that road as soon as possible - it looks long enough for me to loose a pound or two walking on it. Thank you for that view!
ReplyDeleteFantastic shot of the bird! I love him! And that road looks like such a gorgeous, peaceful place to walk!
ReplyDeleteHave a great weekend, Sandy!
What a cad ! lol
ReplyDeleteA beautiful road perfectly photographed. I like very much the V and Λ forms you created on this shot. I suppose and hope this little bird had a beautiful voice :-)
ReplyDeleteThat's a wonderful shot you captured of the bird, and what a beautiful walking path. Lovely SkyWatch Friday photos... and thanks for stopping by my blog too! :)
ReplyDeleteHandsome dude! If I were a lady bird I know I'd be listening to his sweet talk.
ReplyDeleteLove both pictures,but especially the second.
ReplyDeleteAnd he is a handsome dude!
The little bird knew is way a sky watch kind of day... That's why he posed for you:)
ReplyDeletetwo very cool pics My Dear Friend!
ReplyDeleteThis post put a smile on my face. Lesson learned: never play hard to get. Kidding aside, I love the second shot, beautiful angle.
ReplyDeleteHe's a 'pretty bird.' Are you so sure he wanted to lose?
ReplyDeleteYou sure did find a nice quite place for walking. I like place like these.
Happy Sky Watching,
..
Great bird shot...and that second shot is beautiful...love the parallel perspective...
ReplyDeleteSomeone needs to explain to him about the birds and the bees...
ReplyDeleteTypical male, isn't he? He is a handsome guy though.
ReplyDeleteSandy: Neat SWF captures bith the bird and the lane.
ReplyDeleteHi Sandy ~ Long time no see but my spring break is officially over and I am happy to be back in the blogosphere. I love your photgraphy and your words which give even more insight. The picture of the dirt road is perfect - my eye is drawn right to the center and I keep looking to see what lies ahead. Take care.
ReplyDeleteWhat a perfect, clear photograph of the bird. Plus the road makes me itch to walk, run, ride, drive down it to see what is at the end.
ReplyDeleteGreat photos, love the bird up in the tree. Do you know what that is? Your tree lined dirt road is also something to behold. He's very handsome.
ReplyDeleteExcellent pictures, Sandy! I so much like the first one with the bird.

About Sky Watch, I can't get out any more from skyley.blogspot.com and have to swith off Internet Explorer! More, Mr. Linky doesn't work at all, I have to register again but I cannot!!
Kind of nice to have talkative company along that road to the sky. Great captures.
ReplyDeleteNice catch of the bird! But I prefer the road less traveled with sky above!
ReplyDeleteso beautiful!

ReplyDeleteWow, I love the bird photo, so gorgeous. But, the road image is so summer! I could take off with my rucksack to walk and walk....
ReplyDeleteHappy Friday!!
Many thanks for your information about Sky Watch, Sandy. I've gone to skyley in the afternoon and it's all right now! However, I'll try with pleasure Google Chrome (I must download it) which, as you say, must be really very good.
ReplyDeleteStunning! I love the first photo, looks like a Bobolink.
ReplyDeleteBoth are BEAUTIFUL photos ;--)
ReplyDeleteHugs and blessings,
Wonderful post Sandy. Something about a road in a beautiful scene that draws most hearts down it's path, including mine.
