    I wish that too.
    I suppose I have to settle for seeing the birds at all to count as my lottery. :D
    Just imagine Netty 5 of them. We should be so lucky.

    A tree full of those must really be a sight. Our birds aren't that colourful by far.

    We also have them all year round but they are so brilliant against the white snow. I have a few pair here that come and go all the time. It's so cool in the spring when they start bringing the babies around to eat.

    I keep seeing my Cardinal on my Wisteria (not blooming of course), but by the time I get my camera and get back outside, it's bye-bye! Gonna' have to follow Glenda's rule and always have my camera with me! Maybe I will be able to capture a good shot! ;)
