Sitting watching the elderberry ripen , but this I do not want.
I'm waiting for an insect to pass by.

I would love to have a built-in birdcage on a wall of my house. I would spend hours watching this wonderful little creatures. Thanks for these photos Old Git - they bring a warmth to the heart.

that's nicely captured.
most of the elderberries are already ripe here (everything is early this year)

there were lots more last week,
this bush was loaded I think what you see in the photo were under the ripe
ones that have gone.

Oh no! ...they wouldn't be caged (sorry, wrong word) - I could never do that. My brother did this - he had an outside basement wall(wooden) with openings for all the birdies. Inside he had an extra extra thick glass wall (with door for cleaning purposes) so the rest of the basement was still warm, potted trees and all kinds of bird houses for nesting. The birdies were free to come and go as they pleased. He lives a long way from me but I so enjoyed seeing them when I visited. It was such a unique idea.
