Re: Garden Bird Pictures
I don't know the temperature of a bird, but I don't think they have to keep the eggs warm. Poor chicks they'll be hard-boiled

Laughing Dove and Southern Masked Weaver
Laughing Dove
They do have pretty colours!
Cape Glossy Starling
Grey Go-away Bird
This Crested Barbet was fighting the stranger in the mirror of SO's car.
These Hibiscus flowers are almost as big as dinner plates!

Re: Garden Bird Pictures
I just love hibiscus and that is a smashingly beautiful bloom.

I think these barbets have decided on no kids!
