26 Comments on Speechless Sundays (Sort of)- Mother Nature's Way with Colors!
Good morning Kathy,
My youngest granddaughter adores anything purple! The colors on the photos you shot are so rich and vibrant! Thanks you for sharing..I've never seen a Purple Gallinules..and now I have been introduced to not only one but two for future reference :).
Kathy, amazing picture, purple birds very neat, thanks to mother nature, enjoy your Sunday.
Kathy - Beautiful pictures and a very beautiful bird! Purple is also one of my favorite colors :)
Hi Kathy,
Purple is a favorite color of mine as well. My very favorite is a rich green though. I love your photos. Quality and beauty. Perfect.
Kathy, what a beautiful bird! Purple is one of my favorite colors, too.
Excellent photos and the colors are so neat. I wonder if this bird would survive in the Chicago weather. Mom loves purple and loves birds. Thanks for sharing.
Good morning Kathy. What an unusual bird. Terrific pictures and narrative explaining them and your proclivity for the color purple. Have a great day.
Kathy, thank you for taking me on the morning walk with you. Those colors are beautiful and what a treat that you shared those beautiful birds with us.
Wow stunning Kathy! I have never seen anything like these birds. That's one draw back the desert has we have no birds of color. All are brown to blend in and be protected from predators. The lack of colorful birds was one of the hardest things for my wife to adjust to when she moved to Albuquerque from Alabama where all birds are brilliant with color.
Kathy, nature does provide us with a full box of crayons and fortunately you were able to grab a few.
I would have loved to see the search for the treasure up close and personal.
Great shots.
Enjoy the day
Ginny- it's been a gorgeous day here and these birds always bring a smile to my face.
BLiz- LOL- well there's always global warming!
BarbaraT- and no gators!
Gary- how funny. We need to take our cue from Mother Nature. I've seen some doozies in houses!
Keith- I was afraid they were gone for good from Green Cay when the PTB decided to drain the Wetlands for some unknown reason. It took over a year to get them back and there aren't as many as we used to have.
Debbie- I always went for the purples and periwinkles in my box of crayons.
Dorie- I wonder if there are any down by Corpus? I'd never seen one until I moved to Florida.
David- Mother Nature is remarkable..we have purple Gallinules and pink spoonbills!
Stefani- I bet you can find them out in your area too!
Cindy- lately I've gravitated towards certain greens as well. Still love purple.
Chiara- I'm seeing that there are a lot of people who like purple too! Great choice.
Bud & Beth- Oh.... too cold for these guys! But you never know.
Sheila- I had a video of them inching towards the end of a stalk of Fireflag but can't find it. It was hilarious.
Joanna- next time you're in South Florida, take a walk out to any of the nature centers and I'bet you'll see one.
John- never realized the correlation between desert animal and birds having to blend in with the sand, etc. I was amazed at all of the different birds I saw when we moved to Virginia... ones I'd never seen in Texas.
Don- Now that they're back, I'm taking my video camera out to try to get a shot. With their big feet, it's hysterical. And, I managed to see a baby once and there was no mistaking the huge feet .
Kathy - These birds have a lovely, subtle shade of purple. Lovely photos!
I had never heard of the purple gallinule before. They are beautiful, I can see why you love them so much. You really do have a small piece of Heaven there at Green Cay!
Kathy, I always enjoy your morning walks. What a beautiful bird you found!
Like Sharon, I've never heard of the purple gallinule, but they are gorgeous BARFF........and so are your photos.
I believe I've seen that little guy at the San Diego Zoo. The birds at the Zoo are difficult to get pictures of because they have so much foliage to hide in.
Kathy,
Purple is my favorite color and I think I've seen The Color Purple at least a dozen times or more! Those birds are absolutely beautiful! I just finished reading Mimi's post on ordering holiday cards through MOO. A box of cards with these birds would be perfect!
I'm glad I stopped by to see your birds. They brought a beautiful smile to my face.
Patricia
I have lots of friends who love the color purple. I love anything BRIGHT! Purple, pink, lime green, yellow, orange... the brighter, the better! Love the photograph. It could be a painting!!
Kathy,
I love purple too! I've never heard of these birds but they are really beautiful. Thanks for sharing!
Sally- thank you. They're best seen when the sun hits the wings just right.
Sharon- every day is a new day. No gators this a.m. but saw a hawk and lots of coots.
Janice- I've been a little lazy lately and haven't taken my 'big boy" camera but will have to start again.
BARFF- thanks! I gravitate towards anything purple.
Eric- I've run into the problem of not being able to get off the boardwalk to get close enough to some of the birds. That's ok, though... not fond of snakes or gators.
Patricia- I think I've seen The Color Purple at least half a dozen times. Love it.
Joni- I can see you liking those colors! Would have been surprised if you'd said brown or blue.
DeeDee- I'd never seen one until moving here. I'd love to see one of their nests but they really hide them.
