Our New Friends


So it's been a little over a week since we lost our poor kitty and we sure miss him. Zora always says he's happy with Jesus, but I sure miss all the annoying things he used to do. Anyways, we've noticed that there are a lot more birds in our yard since he left us. We've seen a lot more quail on our lawn and robins, rock doves, and swallows pecking at my garden. Today, though, it has been very windy and I kept hearing a tapping on our window as if a branch of a tree was smacking our window with the wind, but we don't have trees in our yard. So I went to investigate and found two small finch looking birds perched on the ledge of our kitchen window and pecking at it as if they want inside. This has never happened before, possibly because our cat wouldn't allow it. I just cleaned the windows last week too, so maybe they can't tell the difference. I filmed them pecking, but can't transfer it onto my computer so all you get is a few photos.

Does anyone know what type of birds they are?

Do you still go bird watching? Well, I do and I am pretty sure those are House Sparrows.
