Since it is the end of May and we are supposedly well past Spring and into Summer, I thought I'd end the month with a picture of this pretty little bird sitting on the rose bush outside my window.

Bird in the Bush
Since it is the end of May and we are supposedly well past Spring and into Summer, I thought I'd end the month with a picture of this pretty little bird sitting on the rose bush outside my window.

Lovely! My camera doesn't have a good enough zoom so in order to get a picture like this I'd have to get quite close, in which case the bird would fly off before I could take the picture! Maybe I need to ask Santa for a more sophisticated camera - though I'm actually very happy with the teeny tiny point'n'press camera I have at the moment!
Lovely shot, Gerald. You said, "rose bush" and I looked and saw some thorns and then I looked again at the size of the canes or limbs or whatever you call them and they are great big. I can't even begin to imagine how big this rose bush might be. I don't think I have, in my lifetime, ever seen a rose bush with wood that large. I posted a House Sparrow today also.
You saw a sparrow? Blimey - they're like hen's teeth these days. Have you notified the BTO?
It occurs to me you might think I'm being sarcastic but I'm not. When I was a youngster you couldn't move for sparrows but they seemed to disappear. There are a few around but nothing like the numbers there once were.
wow Gerald! Such an amazing shot! Great Job at it! I wish I can see and capture a bird so close!

Good photo. Its nice to have wildlife so close to hand.
Mme. la Vache loves birds, so "Louis" will show this to her when she returns this afternoon!
What a lovely photo.
Yes, "Passer Montanus" the The Tree Sparrow.
Good captured!
