Early morning rituals of the garden birds are so like us humans; they come for breakfast which is wild bird seeds and fruit which we scatter on the patch of grass below the bird bath, as the bird feeders get destroyed by the monkeys that also enjoy bird seeds.
OK, so we don't eat bird seed but breakfast is what we start our day with, once we've had our early morning coffee of course.
Once breakfast is over, it's time to bath and preen themselves in the bird bath, and do they have fun with wings splashing water everywhere, really a delightful sight!
One of the perks of retirement is not having to face morning traffic and enjoy leisurely breakfast or morning cup of coffee on the veranda watching the birds frolic.
This is really the best even though I sometimes have to get up early to prepare packed lunches for some of our BnB guests on special request.
I no longer serve a hot cooked breakfast, it's just a continental self-service with all the provisions placed in their units the day before, while they are out; just another measure to avoid close contact since Covid reared its ugly head. But this has made my life way easier, so there have been some valuable lessons learned.
Yellow-rumped Tinker Bird that we rarely see, but we often hear its beautiful calling sound.
Our feathered friends can teach us a lesson or two about trusting that nature will provide; even though it's with the help of us humans at times;)
I hope you enjoyed this little video of the garden birds bathing, uploaded on 3speak which posts directly to Hive.
