Seasonal Symphony
The Call of Summer Birdlife
"Tame birds sing of freedom. Wild birds fly." - John Lennon
Graceful, always vibrant colours, mannerism or movement, swift action symbolizing freedom and joy, ever busy finding food source.
Day chorus in waking to birdsong my natural alarm clock, while male birds sing loudly claiming territory attracting females toward end of spring now moving into summer, a special peace falls offering inspiration heralding in another day.
Dazzling southern or red bishop bird (Euplectes orix) visited on a couple of mornings, a rare sight in the garden normally in reeds along the rivers, they build neat tightly woven nests that withstand all weather conditions. Free meal pays dividends sometimes.
Small, taller and biggest, overload on the feeder with bronze mannikin,sparrow,weaver and dove sharing together, some of the song birds mentioned.
Sleek, gracefully riding thermals taking it higher and higher, the African Woolly-necked storks playing above to delight once again, lifting spirits simply watching.
'General' standing to attention Southern Masked Weaver, he doesn't look impressed at the moment with his red beady eye watching me.
With the new palisade the birds have found new perch, another early summer surprise visitor in a Southern Black Flycatcher (Melaenornis pammelaina) juveniles are spotted brown, isn't it cuteness enjoying the midday sun.
Closing off an hour ago, everything overcast, a little cooler had the pleasure of watching the yellow-bill kite do a fly by. Have a wonderful day.
All photography my own using Canon Powershot SX730 HS. Absolutely no AI here!

You do have a wonderful assortment of pretty birds to enjoy! I wish I was going into summer, sigh.... We are full-blown winter now.
Very hot day yesterday, cooler today, have had lots of rain so every time the sun comes out we boil.
Tuck in tight and enjoy a hot-chocolate and thanks for visiting Wanda.
Well, you stay cool and I will stay warm, lol. Hot chocolate sounds like a plan. ♥

Good morning, @joanstewart
It must be wonderful to step out into your garden and be greeted by these beautiful birds. I love the Southern Bishops, also known as Red Bishops.
Excellent photographs!
Have a wonderful weekend!
Birds have always brought so much pleasure in life, waiting and watching to see who is visiting today.
Happy weekend.

Good morning, dear friend @joanstewart, how are you?
What a beautiful way to wake up, listening to the birds chirping, such irresistible natural music that makes you want to wake up and take a walk in the garden. I love seeing such colorful and beautiful birds.
What beautiful photographs! I appreciate you sharing them with us.

My my, but you are one talented bird watcher! What beautiful photos! After suffering from horrible insomnia, have incorrectly attributed birdsong to my anxiety. I believe it is time for some reprogramming. Getting out into nature these holidays is certainly a priority! Thank you for sharing your joyful and beautiful post with us!
Bird watching is addictive, enjoy the outdoors in nature.
