The Sage in Bloom is Like Perfume…

Titmouse in a Teacup
The Pige
So, I’ve been adopted by a pigeon. He (she?) has decided to hang up his racing wings and just live at my place full time. He’s molting right now (apparently this is the time of year that pigeons do that here), so he is sporting what looks like little spikes all over his head.
This is not another picture of a hummingbird
…it is a picture of a red sage bloom that just happens to have a hummingbird attached to it.

Translation: “I am the loudest bird in the neighborhood, and I’m going to sit here ALL DAYYYYY!”
Bonus Bird
I seem to have misplaced my photo for this date, but I just so happen to have an extra hummingbird on hand.
Dove
Tea Time!
This photo is a little murky, mainly because I was shooting through an old distorted window and a big rosemary shrub (note to self: I need to prune that sucker back), so terms like “amazing clarity” and “sharp focus” will not be used to describe this image. I decided to post it anyway because when something as cute as a titmouse in a teacup happens, you just have to share.
Lonesome Dove
It’s a Trap!
My little greenhouse has become quite the bird trap this week. The visiting racing pigeon has been caught in there three times, and then this morning when I went out to the garden I found this little dove flapping around inside. Neither one seems to be too traumatized by the experience, since they both keep coming back.
