I am linking up Camera Critters and I'd-Rather-B-Birdin.
For this weekend I am sharing some shots of my yardbirds and my Goldie Girl. If you would like to see my backyard blooms from this spring , I am sharing on my other blog at: backyard-blooms

I was sitting on our deck Friday night when this Indigo Bunting stopped by for some food.

One of my yardbirds...the Ruby-Throated Hummingbird.

Happy Birthday to Goldie Girl she is now 10 yrs old. She is slowing down some, kind a sad feeling. But for now we are celebrating her birthday with vanilla ice cream her favorite.

The Cardinal is giving me the evil eye while I was sitting on the deck. They are kind of shy around me. I am glad all the other birds do not seem to mind me being nearby.

The Bluejays often stop by..mainly looking for peanuts. But, they will eat other seed I spread out on my deck railing.

The Downy Woodpeckers are not shy, they will come right next to me for some peanut suet.

These are beautiful backyard birds, Eileen! Gorgeous photos of these beloved critters, including Goldie!
Which critter do I chose . . . I like them all . . . Goldie Girl is the star of the show having a birthday after all . . . but seeing an Indiago Bunting and being close enough for a photo . . . that makes Eileen the super STAR of the show!
Wow, those are beautiful photos of your yard birds. Happy Birthday to Goldie Girl. She looks like a sweet- natured dog. Our dog, Kane will be 13 this summer. I feel sad, too. Deb
Such a huge assortment of birds in your yard! Love that bright blue indigo. Happy birthday to Goldie. She sure is a pretty girl. It's hard to watch our pets age; I have 2 senior dogs myself. Have a great weekend!
gorgeous shot of the indigo and hummingbird! wow!!!
goldie girl is SO sweet. even though she's a golden and marigold was a yellow lab, goldie girl always reminds me of my old girl... *sigh*
Lovely birds Eileen! Happy Birthday to Goldie Girl!

Very lovely birds. I like that ruby throat-ed humming bird.
You have a mini bird park in your backyard.
I want to come out and visit your yard :) The birds are adorable and what great shots.
Wonderful birds! I love the hummingbird. They seem so magical to me.
Great post! Loved your photos. How lucky to have the indigo visit!
Wonderful variety! LOVE that Indigo Bunting. Such an electric blue color!!

HERZLICHEN GLÜCKWUNSCH
noch viele schöne Jahre wünscht das katerchen der noch danke für die schönen Bilder sagt
Happy birthday, Goldie Girl! She is a sweetie. Your photos are amazing as always, Eileen. Hope you're having a great weekend. Jo
we get all the same birds in our backyard, except the indigo, what a beauty!!
happy birthday goldie, you sure are loved!!
You got a hummingbird to pose for you?!!
May happy returns to Goldie, too:)
Gorgeous shots!
superb birding Eileen. But I must say Goldie Girl has stolen my heart today. :o)
Ps...drift seeds are seeds from the tropical plants that wash up from the countries like Old Mexico, and islands in the Caribbean....landing ashore here. And we try and find 'em.
Beautiful and colorful bird photos! Happy birthday to your sweet Goldie girl!
You are right about Cardinals being shy.. They really are... But our Jays, Downys, Chickadees, Tufted Titmice, and Nuthatches are not shy at all....
Wish that Indigo Bunting would have stayed around here. I haven't seen them (2 of them) but ONE time....
I have 3 Hummingbird feeders out --but seldom see any so far this year.... They seem to come here later than to other places.
Happy Birthday to the Goldie Girl.
Hugs,
Betsy
That Indigo Bunting is a gorgeous bird. I've never seen one in person, but I sure enjoy your photos. All of your bird photos are great. I'm glad Goldie Girl got to celebrate her birthday with her favorite treat.
Happy Birthday! Goldie Girl
Love the bird photos.
Have a beautiful week-end!

An Indigo Bunting on your deck??? WOW! That would be so thrilling for me.
That Downy looks like a Hairy to me with that long bill, no?
happy birthday to Goldie Girl. :) And a great day for you as well.
Muito lindos os pássaros e para GOLDIE, parabéns! beijos,chica
Hello Eileen!! I am kicking myself for not following the crumbs to your blog after you have been coming to mine and leaving such nice comments. I'm so glad that today I did, and have come just in time to celebrate your beautiful girls birthday!! She's so lovely, and I hope she has many more birthdays with vanilla ice cream to enjoy!! Your other photos are just amazing, and I'm so, so glad I'm now following your blog!! Enjoy your day, and I hope you are staying cool!!! :-)!!!
a sweet post Eileen with lots of beautiful photos, but I think that little hummer did me in the most...
Eileen, Your bird photography is stunning. I love the indigo bunting. Your Goldie is so beautiful! As a Golden Retriever lover, perhaps you know about Ray Charles, the blind G.R. puppy? He's adorable, and all over the internet. He has a FB page too. Check it out if you get a chance.

I love, love your bird photos. The details are amazing. I usually lose sight of the bird by the time I pull out the camera.
Bird personalities are the same everywhere. I do love blue jays and their boldness. Happy birthday, Goldie Girl! She's a beauty.
Happy Birthday Goldie Girl. You're beautiful. Love your photos and the Blue Jay is gorgeous. Happy Sunday.
Cindy :)
Happy birthday, Goldie Girl! Nice your feathered friends could surround you on your day.
These are all beautiful shots of one of of my favorite subjects...birds! Love the Indigo Bunting. Such a beautiful color. Happy Birthday to the sweet Goldie!
Gorgeous shots! And a special big hug to Goldie Girl! My Oscar is now 10.5 yrs old - slowing down too... so I know that sad feeling.
Hi Eileen, that Indigo Bunting is stunning- as are the rest of your wonderful yard birds.
Happy weekend to you ~:)
Wish a happy Birthday to Goldie Girl for me Eileen. Boy your so lucky having all those colourful birds right there at your door. The Indigo Bunting shot in particular is wonderful. Have a great week ahead.
Okay. I'm feeling envious: I have never been that close to an indigo bunting!
I hope Goldie had a wonderful birthday. She has the most beautiful face! Our dogs LOVE ice cream too. Terrific photographs of your stunning backyard birds! I am always amazed at the blue brilliance of Indigo Bunting feathers. How nice that you were able to get so close to take a fabulous photograph.
Happy Birthday to Goldie! We have bright blue birds around our house that look like that indigo bunting, I wonder if that's what they are.
The bunting is stunning!
Beautiful captures of lovely birds!!
What a nice birthday treat for your beautiful Blondie. They are so special to us we just have to spoil them!
Hi Eileen ...your header is stunning, just love it!!

Hope Goldie Girl had a great birthday and many more to come ! : )
