Nature allows us to get closer to them

I went for a jog yesterday at the jog park. After I jog, I rest a while before going back home. It was late evening already. I saw some birds such as the black bird in the picture flew quite close to the ground. I manage to take a picture of it. Then comes the white bird in the picture also. Suddenly that little bird comes very close to me. I just keep stretching.... And the little bird keeps closer to me. It didn't fly away. I manage to take a picture of it perched on the pole. After all, I was thankful for the nature given me a chance to be closer to them. I almost touched the little bird when suddenly there's a noise and the bird flew away. Who's making that noise Does nature also allows you to be that close to them? Stay safe, take care. Picture credit: Me Adie, July 2020

Yes. Most of the time when i go to my nearby vacant lot for gardening. I planted some bananas and other fruit bearing trees like mango, guyabano and some vegetables. Birds flying around humming with sweet voices. Butterflies and small creatures lives in soil. I love nature.

I'm sure the birds will thank you us for planting those fruits for them. They have food and shelter.

@Adie04 it looks like a wild bird because the body is long. I have seen that since we moved here in 2001. Now they are more than 5.

We often see birds, chipmunks, squirrels, or frogs in our area. Little Miss has picked up a frog to show me. Glad it wasn't a snake! I do not like snakes. She does want to approach the birds and other wildlife. They allow us to only get so close before they fly or scamper away.

@ElusiveButterfly glad you have warn her. Some children or even adults, if they know what we don't like, they will purposely give something to scare us

Animals seem to be losing some of their fear since there haven't been as many people out and about lately. As long as there are only one or two people birds as well as other animals come closer to us.

Yup that's what I also noticed nowadays too. Maybe it's time that nature should come and heal the land.

Yes, either I go to the nature or they come to my balcony. I have not walk for a while for the sake of walking. The bad weather is hindering me to do so.

@Adie04 That is very nice that the little one wanted to get close to you. I wonder how close he would have gotten if that noise did not happen.

@Adie04 Maybe next time you will not hear the noise and the little one will come even closer to you and maybe let you touch him.

My friend has a robin in her garden and he allows her to get really close = sometimes he even hops into her conservatory. You've got some great pics.

The title attracted me, wherever I see it says 'nature' I fly like a butterfly to that topic I spend all my free time in nature, I even try to transfer work, so that I can spend 100% in nature

Were I live right now there are a lot of trees, therefore I see many birds when I am on the deck. I love watching them feed at the birdfeeder. Great shots you got there.

Beautiful photos! I'm surrounded by nature - deer, birds, chipmunks, squirrels, foxes, coyotes, turkeys, geese, turtles, rrogs, toads, raccoons, etc. I don't want to get too close to any of them, but they do come up to me often.

Ahaa, those deers we talked about few days ago? I think I still gonna be like the deers; be the little thinkers hoping around your front yard. I'm too lazy to ring the doorbell. That's what we call as attention grabbers
