Here are three birds visiting a leaky water faucet for this #featheredfriday by @melinda010100
The place I was staying at in Arizona had a leaky faucet in the back yard. This created a perfect desert oasis for three different birds. In Arizona wherever there is water there is wildlife.
The first visitor is Abert's towhee. Though this guy has a very small range in southern Arizona it is not a rare bird to see once you get into its range.
The leaky water faucet was quite popular with the birds and the towhee is waiting his turn while another flies down to drink.
The next visitor to the faucet was not as nice as the towhee. The common cardinal is quite the bully of feeder and of leaky water faucets.
He made his presence known with some laser beam chirps then flew down to scare the others away.
He dominated the faucet for a good minute or so until he drank his fill. Fortunately he was a good poser on the rammed earth wall.
The next visitor was a common mockingbird. It wasn't scared of the cardinal at all.
They all seemed to land right above the faucet to scope the place out before flitting down to drink tiny drops of water then land back on top of the wall again.
All I had to do was stand there snapping them pose perfectly on the wall.
If anyone lives in the desert all they have to do is not fix their water faucets for some good bird watching lol. Better yet some kind of waterfall fountain would probably draw in all sorts of birds even more species than just a seed feeder would.
That's all for now, thanks for looking :-)
