~ Flutters and Tweeters ~

Spring is here and there is a lot of bird life in my garden....
I happened to notice these cuties that arrived in my garden today....

They flew in and landed on the Grevillia....

 There were three sets of them and appeared to be mothers  with babies....

 This mother had kind of 'scary' eyes....

 They must have come from a cold climate as they appeared to be wearing scarves....

but they seemed very happy feeding on the beautiful Grevillia flowers.....
Hhhmmmm, I shall have to refer to my bird book to see if I can identify them!! 

Meanwhile, my shadow seemed to be very content just hanging out on the garden with them and his 'stone cat'....

And while we were out in the garden we took a photo of this beautiful rose.  It is called Chameleon as it changes colour.....

Thanks for sharing a little bit of our backyard with us!!
