Ooooooops !!!!




I spotted this in Blogtopia and thought you might like it. I love the way the others all rush to the edge to see what happens to them, apart from the one who can't be bothered, but is interested enough to crane his neck !!


Here's hoping that the pair that were fighting, ended up here !!


This is the sort of weather that we have been experiencing for too many days now ..... Oh well .....




HA HA !!!!!

Have a great week and don't forget to wet your plants !!

  1. The animated gif of the birds is classic! I could watch birds and their antics for hours. Don't worry it's not just Blighty, here in deepest France the weather has been very mixed, more rain today! I want the warm, sunny days to arrive soon.

  5. Always a good chuckle when stopping in here Jackie! Hope the sun shines soon, it has been mixed weather here and it seems spring in March, not May. Have a wonderfully fun week. Much love XO

  6. Oh very amusing! We haven't had that weather but when we look east we can see the dark blur of it steadfastly over you. "Poor Jacqueline," we murmur among ourselves at the meetings of the women of the parish, "so wet where she is," scoffing more biscuits as evidence of our sympathy.

  12. Hello Jackie:
    The animated 'film' of the birds is such fun and does remind one of the behaviour of human beings when in a group. There are always those who will crane their necks for a closer look, those who pretend that nothing is happening and those who wade right on into the fray!!!

    We hesitate to mention our azure blue skies, light refreshing breezes, hot,sunny days of sitting outdoors until nightfall and the odd fluffy white cloud dancing along......thank you so much for the reminder to water our plants!!!!!

    Holiday in Budapest?!!!!

    You have such a cheerful spirit and always make me laugh. When the going gets tough can you multi task, such as "keep a stiff upper lip and water your pants" oops plants?

  42. These little birds are looking soooo adorable!! Gosh, I love them so much. How cute they are running to the edge and looking what happened.

    well, now we also haved the worst windy, cold, rainy, its not at all spring weather over here. brr...it is so cold that I had to fire up the wood burning stove this morning. And outside all my plants and pots were all over the place. A few terracotta pots had been broken as well. Sad about that too ! But hopefully the sun will make both of us warm within a few days. Hope you had a fabulous weekend !
