Party for a Cooper? Poor Alice is feeling left out!


Jeeze, the trouble with being punctual is that there is nobody here to appreciate it!
I know that party is here somewhere...
..and I'll find it..gotta hurry tho..
Alice is such a frequent visitor to our yard, we believed a name was appropriate!!I think there is a slight resemblance in looks...don't you?
(altho, I'm sure my Alice isn't anywhere as musically talented as the real Vincent Damon Furnier!!)

    Oh My Gosh I had to just laugh out loud when I saw Alice in the last picture. What a resemblance!!! haha.. Great shots of this hawk, Tina. I love to see her stalking around and sitting on that perch. Wonderful post.

    I dont think the other birdies are interested in the type of Party Cooper is.

    That is too funny! Great photographs. I'll bet things get pretty quiet around the feeders when Alice shows up.

    Do all the birds hide when Alice arrives?

    In answer to your question on my blog. Yes I always have a camera with me and have 3 at home in different rooms, where I can catch something out of different windows. Talk about Obsessive huh?

    Hi Tina, Gee---you are not going to see many 'songbirds' around with that cooper standing watch... That last picture looks exactly like ALICE... ha ha

    Hugs,
    Betsy
    P.S. Love seeing the little Screech Owl poking his head out too..

    Tina, you are an absolute nut! But, I love your sense of humor, of course. :-)

    Btw, the hawk will stop coming if you stop putting all those peanut butter squirrels in your feeder!

    Lovely bird, she might not appreciate the art work though, but it was funny!

    She is a youngster or immature hawk so may do most anything, including wearing a wig. LOL

    Thanks for visiting my hawk today.

    What wonderful pictures. I hope Alice soon finds a different place to hang out -- you can't have many visitors when Alice is around.
