Birds-Signs of Spring

I thought this would be a good time of year to
take note of our beautiful birds. The photo at
the following URL caught my eye:

Here's a beauty!
"Cardinals in Love"

jenny at w*rk...

Nice one

~~seadancer~~...

Thank you, Jen. It turned out to be the one of the sparrow
with the worm, but, as you say, it was a nice one too.
Great camera work, I'd say.

~~seadancer~~...

Ooops, wrong URL!
That one (above) was the Robin with the worm.
A great photo too.
Here's the URL I meant to post. (I hope it's the right one!) (g)
"Cardinals in Love"

~~seadancer~~...

Wrong URL again. Sorry! Let's try this one:
"Cards in Love"...

Saxman...

Have you not heard of tinyurl?

Rabbit...

you where you are being directed to and gives you the chance to cancel.
Personally I wouldn't click on a tinyurl link since it gives no indication
where it is going.

~~seadancer~~...

But the longer URLS seem to work and you don't lose
time converting.

Saxman...

You could try this if you don't trust me!

John the R-T...

This is the only group where I would click on a tinyurl and then only
that one tells you where you are being redirected to and gives you a
chance to cancel.

Rabbit...

It's not a matter of not trusting you, it's that I want to see where I am
is AFAIK the only one which does that. I trust my friends but I still scan
with AVG any attachment they send me.

JoeH...

Me neither. Incidentally have you tried to get makeashorterlink.com to
make a shorter link to itself? I have, it doesn't do it, try it.

Rabbit...

No I hadn't tried it, have you really got nothing better to do ? I'm sure
Mrs H could find you a millions jobs much more essential than finding out if
makeashorterlink can make a shorter link to itself. You know stuff like DIY,

Ali...

Obviously, it can't, even if it could make a link to itself.

gardening or even washing dishes :-)

JoeH...

She could try..................... ;-)

Rabbit...

That's fighting talk that is :-)

JoeH...

Too true...... ;-)

Try this.

This is better. Give it time.

~~seadancer~~...

Yes, Saxman, I've heard of tinyurl and I've used it many times.
But the longer URL works just as well and I don't have to
lose time going to tinyurl.com, even though I have it on my desktop.
Your livecam doesn't seem to be working right now, Saxman.
Who is Benn Kramer?

~~Linda~~...

Aw, how cute. I've had a pair of doves canoodling outside the back door for
most of the day ;-)

~~seadancer~~...

Yes, I love hearing birdsong!
Such a peaceful sound.
Here's a pic of a pair of doves:
