Birds of a Feather…

I’ll (Nicki here) admit it: I’m a bit of a bird lover and wherever I go I’m always listening & looking for birds. It makes for a bit of ribbing from family and friends who can’t help but tease me about my long-standing obsession. Here’s a recent article in the New York Times that brings together two loves: India and birds. What’s not to love?

Teal, umber, chocolate brown, a bit of persimmon…perfection!

I don’t even know what to say about just how fantastic this guy is. Those hot pink legs alone are enough to make me fall over!

Loving the color green as I do, this little fellow makes me want to create a dress in all these hues and put on a big swipe of black kohl eyeliner.

I’d like to paint my kitchen the gorgeous terracotta color of his wings.

Yes, I own this and try to make anyone visiting me watch it! I promise, it’s worth watching again and again.

  5. Nikki, I, too, am a bird lover. I think the images you have shared are amazing!! I am always in awe that creatures like these are not man made, but of nature. So incredibly stunning!!

    You sure what you really love isn’t David Attenborough?! All birds aside, colors are beautiful, but you’re still a bit tweety about it all…..
