Bird Kingdom, Pt.13

Bird Kingdom, Niagara Falls, ON


Welcome Back!

This week I have more bird photos from the Bird Kingdom in Niagara Falls. 

The first couple of photos are the Superb Starling, I think (based on the website) the next photos are the Nicobar Pigeon, with very beautiful coloring and the last photo is one of some conures. I can't identify which conure they are, because they look like juveniles to me, with the fuzzy heads and they are quite small too!

Sorry, for not posting last week, I had some sort of stomach issue going on and stayed in bed until noon and then I had to do all my errands and chores, so I never made it in here to update the blog!

This week went by fast again...I always say that...Time does fly when you are having fun for sure! I've been designing some projects for work at home in the evenings too! (and today) As well, Kevin, Zeek and I have been getting out for some walks! I took some photos of the spring buds with the Nikon and will share on here some day! At the rate I'm going, it will likely be December!

Yesterday, Kevin, Zeek and I headed to Presqui'le Park in Brighton for a day of hiking and enjoying the weather! It was beautiful out and I took some photos, but unfortunately, we didn't see too many critters..a few frogs and a swan, who was not very cooperative for photos! :-)

Anyway, have a great week!

Bird Kingdom, Pt.8

Bird Kingdom, Niagara Falls, ON


Welcome Back!

This week, I have more small birds from the same Aviary at the Bird Kingdom. These include: a Starling, a couple of Canaries(yellow ones), a Zebra Finch, two White-cheeked Bulbuls and a Java Sparrow. I'm identifying them from the website, so I think they are mostly correct...the yellow ones may not be canaries, but that's my best guess! :-)

This week was another fast one...tiring too! I think I was fighting a cold a couple of days, so was extremely tired! I taught a class on Thursday night, so worked 12-8, which seemed odd to not go in until 12, but at least I got my car's oil changed in the morning! 

Yesterday, Kev and I headed to the Big Apple and also went to Campbellford, where there is a craft store that I like, a cheese factory and a chocolate factory..yep, we visited them all! They also have an awesome bakery, but we didn't go, as we had a yummy apple dumpling at the Big Apple. Today is my usual laundry and grocery day, but had to get my haircut too! SIGH..so much for a quiet day at home! Off to enjoy some quiet time reading a book!

Have a great week!
