Lovable birds

It is hard to choose a favourite bird! We are so lucky to have Kingfishers living close by at the river. I hope they survive the freezing cold weather this winter. They need open water for feeden. A couple of years ago I got to see Pine Grosbeaks for the first time. They usually keep further north but when the food is scarce they fly further south.
The Nuthatch is a regular visitor in our backgarden and it´s attitude is adorable. Did you know that Swans stay together for many years and sometimes for life? Red Robins are so cute and has a lovely song that can be heard all around our neighbourhood during Spring. Well, these are a few of my favourite birds. 🙂
