Thank you, Donkees for all your bird posts!
I just love the birds and pray for all of them as the earth gets hotter.

And that bright eye sees all.
Beautiful.
Thank you, Donkees.
P.S. Given your screen name, do you have any donkee photos to share?
I fell in love with Brighty of the Grand Canyon way back in the last millennium. We had the vinyl and about wore it down to rings.
Never knew the sad ending to his life until today. His memory is for a blessing.
