En el patio de mi casa hay un parral que nos da muy buena sombra en el verano e invita a muchos gorriones, chingolos y algunos otros pájaros como tordos y torcazas a disfrutar de su frescura durante los días de calor.
In the patio (backyard) of my house there is a vine that gives us good shade in summer and invites many sparrows, grosbeaks and some other birds... (an English version at the bottom)

Gorrion / Sparrow |
No sé a donde van a dormir en el verano, pero cuando está entrado el otoño, el parral se convierte en el dormitorio de algunos gorriones, y aunque van y vienen durante el día, cuando empieza a caer la tarde llegan para quedarse.
Es una cita infalible; cuando siento sus grititos y chillidos, miro el reloj y a diario a partir de las 17 y 20 aproximadamente y hasta las 17 y 45 comienzan las "discusiones" por sus lugares... siii es asi, cada uno tiene su
lugar elegido. Y como algunos lugares son mejores que otros, a veces hay gorriones que se hacen los "distraídos" y ocupan el lugar de otro, ¡hasta que viene el dueño y lo reclama!
Como se puede ver por la hora en que vuelven al parral los gorriones se van a dormir temprano.
Me gusta mucho observar como se comportan , tienen mucha "personalidad" y son muy territoriales, ja, ja...
Acá van unas fotos de algunos de los gorriones porque ¡¡¡en realidad tengo ocho "inquilinos" en mi parral!!!

Son como pequeños pompones de plumas, ¿no es cierto?
Cuando los observo, los veo como pequeños "paquetitos de vida", son tan chiquitos y sin embargo tan vigorosos y con tanta personalidad...
Alguien quizás pueda pensar: ¡¡¡¡sólo son gorriones!!!!
y si, son viditas simples pero hermosas, ¿no?
Está bueno apreciar estas cosas sencillas de la vida cotidiana, detenerse un poco y observar lo que nos rodea y convive con nosotros...y agradecer, por poder parar para verlas y disfrutarlas.
Claro que el hotel no les dura para siempre porque en invierno hay que podar la parra, así que con mucha pena tenemos que "desalojarlos".
Aunque hay dos que decidieron quedarse y buscaron nuevos lugares, aca van unas fotos que tomé a distancia para que no se asustaran
(quizás se vean borrosas, pero las saqué con el máximo zoom de mi cámara digital _que no es profesional por cierto :P_)

In the patio (backyard) of my house there is a vine that gives us good shade in summer and invites many sparrows, grosbeaks and some other birds like black trush birds and ringdoves to enjoy its freshness during the hot days.
I do not know where they go to sleep in the summer,but when it is entered the autumn,, the vine becomes in the bedroom of some sparrows,and although they come and go during the day, when dusk begins, they come to stay.
It is an infallible appointment ; when i feel their screams and squealing, I watch the clock and daily at approximately 17 and 20 and even 17 and 45 begin their "discussions" about their places ... yes sir!!! and each one has its place chosen. And as some places are better than others, sometimes there are sparrows do "distracted" and take the place of another, until the owner comes and claims it!
As you can see by the time they return to the vine, the sparrows will go to sleep early.
I like very much to see how they behave, have much "personality" and are very territorial, ha, ha ...
Here are some pictures of some of the sparrows because actually I have eight "tenants" on my vine!
They are like small pompoms of feathers, isn't it true? When I observe them, I see them as small "packets of life" are so tiny tots, and yet, so vigorous and with as much personality ...
Perhaps someone can think: ¡¡¡¡ they only are sparrows!!!! and yes, they are simple but beautiful little lives, right?
It's good to be able to appreciate these simple things of everyday life, stop a bit and see what surrounds us and lives with us ...and be grateful for be able to stop us to see them and enjoy them.
It is clear that the hotel does not last them forever because in winter the vine must be pruned, so with much pain we have to "dislodge them".
Although, there are two of them, who decided to remain and found new places.
Here are some photos I took at a distance, I did't want to frighten them, (may be blurry, but I got the maximum zoom of my digital camera that is not professional : P)
Aren't they beautiful?
Until the next time.
