Giant birds outside my back door! Florida is amazing:)
I’m pretty sure these big babies would have let me pet them, but I have a rule, I do not touch birds that are taller then my first born child.
Actually, I just don’t touch birds, they kinda freak me out! They could peck your eye balls out!
Anyway, anyone know what kind of pretty this is?
Must head back to the pool.
National Geographic Photographer OUT!
Mwah!
What kinda birds are they? I have never seen anything bigger than a Canadian goose anywhere other than in the zoo …
Are those some kind of cranes or herons?
Have a wonderful vacation!
Yay! I am glad you are having a good time! Cool pics of the birds- now get back to the pool!
They ARE beautiful, but I would be freaked out too. I’m not a big bird fan, either.
Birds and me don’t get along (ask the seagull that stole the hotdog right out of my bun mid-bite). Those are beautiful, but you’d hear me screaming for miles if I opened my back door for that guest! 🙂
Well, here now I was about to show my son the heron like in the brown bear book. Good thing I kept reading!
I’m glad you are having fun, we seem to be getting neighborly again in the top mom blogs
Those are actually sandhill cranes, and what are you doing taking pictures in my backyard?? 😀 Those are in our neighborhood all the time!

Once I went to Busch Gardens and there were these flamingoes in this pen. And if you got close enough they would totally try to make out with you and feel you up and peck at your jewelry and stick their beaky things down your shirt.
It was very National Geographic meets Flamingoes Gone Wild.
omh-at first i thought those things were fake! wow!
Aw those are so pretty..
