Anyone has ever had such an experience being so close to little birds?

yes, just sometimes... whenever i go out, these little birds are perched on trees or the wall..i also see them gathering twigs. There was this one time a bird tried to get a twig, twice its size, the twig fell.

Hello William Both me and my wife have indeed had birds close to us when feeding. These included: swallows and pigeons mainly - the ones we fed in London, in St James Park have actually climbed on our hands to eat, while the ones in Bucharest are far more scared. I have also fed chickens, ducks, turkeys and turtle-doves as well.

Yes, I've experienced being close to wild birds. I've been close to pigeons before. These birds have no fear of humans, especially when there is food around. Seagulls are the same way, although they are bigger than pigeons and tend to hover over people when getting food, so people have to watch out not to get bird poop on them! LOL My husband was able to hold a hummingbird once some years ago as well. The poor thing had flown into one of our windows. If I remember right, he cradled it in his hands and even gave it some nectar. Once the bird felt better my husband released it outside. Happy mylotting!

Dear friend, This reminds me those sparrows that comes to our home with lot of it. It is really nice to see them. 5 years back there were parrots that come to the back yard of our home, we feed with beans. It is really nice to see them eating what we feed them. Moreover they are friendly to us and even come near for those eatable things they want, only thing they want is not to hurt them. It is lovely to see them enjoying their freedom sharing with us. I feel pity to see them caged, as if they are put in a jail.

I am an animal lover and i have a zoo( not caged, nor anything like that but i am the owner of this surrounding). Birds often come to my yard( if they dont come, i call them by their own sound). They roam on my yard and eat whatever i provide. there are some peculiar birds like cuckoo, mynah who come to my lap and sit and eat from my hands( better can say i feed them) have a nice time. I LOVE BIRDS.

I have seen an bird near to and I spent some hours with them. My friend used to feed large numbers of birds in his in a big cage and I once i went to his home and I asked whether I can feed the. He take me into the cage and allowed me to feed them with love and food. That was the first time I was seeing many birds near to me.

Hi William! How are you and your wife and son and family? Sorry for my absence from your discussions and from mylot in general. Issues keep coming up - sure you understand. The photo of the birds is just so beautiful. Reminds me of my time with two little birds who kept disturbing me with their nicks on the AC top. Then one day I decided to shoo them off. I went outside in the balcony to find out what are they upto really. Saw one bird squatting happy on the top and the other balancing dry twigs and pushing them through a narrow entry in the corner. The substantial branches they were keeping and the not so sturdy ones they were throwing off. I was so amazed and thrilled by their sense of emotion and intelligence that I forgot why I had come outside. Next few days what followed was a beautiful nest, a birdling, two happy couples and my sleepless nights. And then one fine day they all were gone leaving me alone with my sleep!

That's so lucky that you can be so close to the little birds. I have never had such kind of the experience, especially in the big city. In this May holiday we went to my husband's hometown and there was a swallow nest in the house. It is so nice. At least we could see them fly away in the morning and fly back to home in the evening. I love China

yeah i have experienced that too and what makes it more exciting is that the birds are doves.. aside from this, i have experienced to let butterflies rest on my shoulders and on my fingers..

That is a nice feeling when you are so close to to them! When I was a student in my old house, I had a big balcony and I used to sweep outside the small breadcrumps from kitchen floor after my breakfast. And there was one small bird that was coming almost every day to eat them, so I was sitting there drinking my coffee and I was watching the bird that was coming very close to the glass door. It was also going to my neighbor's balcony downstairs from what she said :)
