No way! Pictures?

I don't have any!! We were driving around, and somehow I got caught without my camera. It looked just like a normal peacock, just all white. He may be still alive; I should go look for him!

Am I the only one that, whenever I scroll by this thread, I think it says "the bewitching thread"?

The bewitching birds thread... it seems true enough

Some pictures of "my pink-sides." They really do stick around! There's at least three, though I normally only see one or two at a time. Do you think they're pink-sides or did I ID them wrong?

So pretty! Do they have black "eyeliner," or is that just the picture?

This morning, I saw Mr. Owl! I heard him when I was in bed, so I got up quickly. I saw him out my window, sitting on a power line. It was too dark to really see him clearly, but I know he's still around!

My dad said he saw the owl living here last night. When I went to check, he said it flew away

I also saw a wren yesterday! It was the first one I've ever seen! She was brown and white, with a speckled tail. ❤

Just the picture. Their heads are light gray which contrasts with their black eyes.

Do any of you know what kind of hawk this is? He's small, less than a foot tall. He likes to chase small birds around, and sits a tree for hours each day.

Also, some random bird pictures, most taken with my Dad's camera. Does anyone know what kind of hummingbird the purple and green one is?
