Good Tidings!

Who said Butterfly Bush is for butterflies only? I see pretty Moths, Bees, Bumble Bees, Ladybugs and of course... Hummingbirds hovering over the honey dripping scented flowers.


Do you see me? Hmm... I love sunflowers; the seeds are delicious. Even Hawks can't spot me while I am feeding on sunflowers---God knew what He was doing when painting my feathers yellow and black. But this butterfly bush is too good to pass by... so, perched I am---a goldfinch---bringing "Good Tidings."

The other reason why I stopped by... was that I heard a Parakeets--chirping-- party going on, and I thought I spotted at least two of them who could be my relatives!!! If you don't believe me, check the Sept.7th posting and let me know!
