Trying to keep the chain from being broken in Ileana’s Photo Chain challenge.
Ellie posted this very cool scene in her recent post: Dancing In The “Rain”.
I chose animals (bird & cat) as my element to write about.
Many bird and cat photos to choose from. I decided on the baby bird and Dude for today.
Was watching this baby robin last year as he just flew out of the nest in my backyard. Up on the deck he flew. The Dude was in the screen room. He saw him as he landed. They looked and talked back and forth with each other.
I was at the patio doors taking the photo, very cool to watch.

This made me say, “AWE Dude!” outl oud. Dogs raised their ears.. lol Love it. I have done a few of these, the chains are spreading. Now it’s time to join this chain. I mean, you have my favorite things in here. Let’s see…… I could pick cats, birds, animals in general, patios, green grass, landscaping, bright sunny spring days, faces, expressions, shadows, leading lines…. Okay, narrowed it down to cats or birds. You’ve all seen so many pictures of the cats. Why not pick birds. I choose birds. 😉
Now, I need to go look at Ellie’s post! I know it has to be good. I love her posts.
I know, isn’t it such a cute moment. I was so excited to get this one. You are right, there are many things here to choose from. Thanks Kim.
That’s such a cool capture, they are looking at each other!
Thanks Ellie, it was so fun to watch this unfold. They were so close and the baby bird had just flown from the nest for the first time, and the Dude is the first thing he sees. Would love to know what he was thinking, both of them! 🙂
Does he chatter while watching the birds? Cats are so enigmatic, we can’t never know whether their hunter instincts are getting awaken or they are just curious, but I see a lot of people who have both birds and cats as pets, and the bird is actually the boss.
Yes he does and depending on the kind of bird, he will make different sounds. So funny.
I take part in this challenge and I like it. I’ll try to keep it going
That is great, always good to see you Elenka. Take care.
Dude does seem to have his evil side on display . 😀
I don’t think he has ever been that close to a bird before, he was taking to him.
come a little closer. there is nothing to fear.
Great picture, sorry my mind went to the bad side!
You are fine, I am not sure if he has ever even been that close to a bird before.
i bet! i know our two labs, jump at birds!
If my cats were outside they would do the same.
Dude is very cute. My cat used to stand at the window and watch the pigeons.
Thanks, he has so much personality. My cats watch and talk to the birds all the time.
Cute photo. Runt, my cat, is an outdoor and indoor cat so The Dude would be very jealous if he knew that. Do not tell him about Runt… Runt, at the present is a happy camper as the snow is melting quickly and the temperature is mostly in low to mid teens centigrade. He just loves basking in the sunshine. Again do not make The Dude more jealous but say hi to him from me….
Yes he would want to go out with Runt. I am not sure if he ever has been out actually. I will give him a neck rub for you, he loves those. Take care. 🙂
I love that photo the bird is not afraid because the Dude can only look at it.
The bird had just flown from the nest for the first time and he sees the Dude! He must have thought what the heck is that. It was funny to watch.
Very nice photo, I am looking forward to “Dancing in the rain”. We are in a drought even through Autumn.
Thanks Pam, we have had record rainfall already this year.
