FRIDAY'S HUNT and WEEKEND REFLECTIONS - Costa Rica

I am linking with Fridays’ Hunt and Weekend Reflections and today the letter is M, Cloth and Every Day Things.  For M I am showing a beautiful little bird I saw in a small pool of water where it had come down in the late afternoon to bath in Costa Rica.  
Look at his yellow leggings!
It is the Red –capped MANAKIN. There is a video  of it below.






So this image below covers REFLECTIONS, M for MOI, MIRROR and MATTRESS and on the bed is a CLOTH cover and of course my clothes are made of CLOTH.  All of the things you see in this bedroom are EVERY DAY THINGS, like the bed, lamp, painting, bed and carpet.
This was taken in my first bedroom that I stayed at in Costa Rica.


Many thanks for visiting and also for leaving any comments.

  15. It's a nice find, Margaret, your little. Red –capped MANAKIN. Would the larger birds hurt him? Humming Birds? The Mankin is very pretty. It would be hard for him to hide with such a bright cap. Do birds get very clean bathing like thst?
