Pairs of birds! They are the first subject that came to mind for pairs, and look so pleasing together. Marianne is asking for pairs this month, so if you fancy a pair of toned matador buttocks, have a look here http://eastofmalaga.net/2013/10/01/cbbh-photo-challenge-pairs/
Here at Dadirri there are always Eastern Grey Kangaroos about. Often they are mothers and babies in a group, sometimes an adult male trying his luck with the ladies, and very rarely two adult males having a battle for supremacy. Some mornings we see kangaroo footprints on the beach. They go down to the water to swim, perhaps to help heal wounds and rid themselves of ticks. Kangaroos are strong swimmers!
This month I would like to introduce you to Ventis at http://ventisqueras.wordpress.com/, although I know some of you know her beautiful poetic and picturesque blog. I don’t speak Italian, but Google translates well enough for us to understand each other! You might also like to meet George who keeps two parrots, and writes about them so lyrically and practically. If you ever wondered about living with a bird, this blog is for you! Look here to experience another world with George http://georgeweaver.wordpress.com/

Love the lorikeets and the ‘roos. 🙂 I enjoy both of your chosen bloggers. George has also been one of my choices. 🙂
that is probably how I found her thank you ad!
Really love the series of ‘pair’ images…also really liked the lorikeets.
colourful little birds aren’t they?
galahs are so cute, lorikeets are beautiful… Beautiful, delightful pair post!
galahs are real characters! so glad you enjoyed the pairs 🙂
Your bird photos are precious, particularly the finches and wrens 🙂
I really adore the wrens, I was so excited to capture them, and the finches are always so immaculate, but very fast movers 🙂
Birds seem so right in pairs. You’ve made a wonderful selection of images. I clicked onto the 2 blogs you mentioned and became quite distracted, especially by Cheeky & Rita 🙂
oh yes, I would love to meet Cheeky … training a parrot is a fascinating business .. all the things you have to take care of to have a bird living free in the house with you!
ma insomma Cristina! ma sono tutti bellissimi..e dove li hai trovati tutti?
I adore those frogmouths and the little wrens!.
nature is full of wonder!
I just love the pelicans. They always remind me of the beach and relaxation. But you captured lots of lovely “pairs” photos.
thank you, most of my bird photos are singles, so it was fun remembering and finding the ‘pairs’ 🙂
Yes I can see that these sharing activities would be lovely to get involved in. I think I might do that once I’m finished my Memoirs. Time can be a problem for me.
I understand, you will have time one day 🙂
Yes and I’m so looking forward to it. Just another couple of years.
Love all your gallery
thank you so much, I know you enjoy nature just as much as I do!
Lovely gallery of pairs 🙂 I’m particularly fond of pelicans – there’s something very ancient about them, isn’t there?
Thanks for sharing links – one I know and one I don’t 🙂
hi marianne, I always forget where I heard about different blogs … sure I found many at your site! christine xx
The sparring kangaroos are my pick from your fabulous gallery of pairs Christine.
George is a dear friend. Off to check out Ventis 🙂
