My Mountain Green: Sing It, Willie!

Sing It, Willie!

I love Lazuli Buntings!

I had 15 of these blue beauties at my seed feeder yesterday. Makes me think of Willie Nelson singing "Blue Skies"

Blue skies smiling at me

nothing but blue skies do I see

Bluebirds singing a song

Nothing like bluebirds all day long.

I never saw the sun shining so bright

never saw things going so right.

Noticing the days hurrying by

when you’re in love, oh my how they fly.

Blue days all of them gone

Nothing but blue skies from now on...

I am so happy to see that Spring is here! While the little birds are blue, the very sight of them lifts my blues. Hope you enjoy these little Lazuli Buntings as much as I do in My Mountain Green.
