Ruby-crowned Kinglet

Any other avian action shots snapped in the garden this week would be pornographic. The birdies are very, very randy right now.

Acknowledging your problem is the first step to recovery.

I am a birdbath hoarder. I cannot set foot in the local Wild Birds Unlimited establishment without drooling over the latest in ornamental avian ablation vessels, and you know how it goes, "You drool on it, you bought it!" This time I may actually have gone over the top. It is beautiful, yes. It is functional, being broad, shallow and sturdy. It is unique, looking like a Frank Lloyd Wright creation, and it was priced as if it were his last design. We now have six birdbaths. We also still have birds fighting over whichever ONE is occupied at the moment.

Pretty, isn't it?
