Hello Fellow Finchers.

I was just browsing through some bird pictures on line, when I came upon some real cuties.

I would love to post them here, but can't for the life of me remember how to do the URL thingie. If I just post the pictures, Sally will have to kill me. So I'll just tell you what they are, and you'll have to look them up yourselves.

The Pink Robin
The Scarlet Robin
The Rose Robin

I think they are super cute folks, and worth looking up. When I look at some of these birdlings, I drool just a little...

Nah, I'd just beat you over the head with a bunch of coco fiber!

I know how to do links to websites, pages, etc, but not sure how to link photos. Anyone out there who is more computer-literate than Elana and I?

@Sally lovezebs

This is how you do it. Click on the actual picture on Google, where it only shows that picture. Then copy and last the URL of that picture here.

It worked, Brian! I opened the link you posted, right-clicked on it, then scrolled down to 'copy', clicked on that and then pasted, and it provided the link. Thanks!

No problem! Sally

What a dilemma, Elana. I googled all three of these robins and I think my favorite would be the Scarlet Robin. There is just something about black heads (or caps, or crowns) that gets to me. And the little white spot on the forehead is adorable. While I was in Google images I also saw the Red Capped Robin - how could you say No to that little cutie. Thank goodness for me and my bank account, these birds don't seem to be available around here.

Hi Iso...

Aren't they just the most adorable little puff balls ever? I haven't seen the Red Capped Robin yet. Now I'll have to look him up and drool some more.

I was so enthralled with the images, that I forgot to look up where they come from. I suppose I should read up about them a little more. That way we'll know where to go ang get them, when you and I go on bird hunting adventure. LOL!!!

Hi Elana - so how do you feel about a trip to Australia then???

Is that where they all come from, Iso? Holy Crow, that's a long way to go, especially for some one who can barely afford a trip across the street .

I guess we'll have to get Bill, or Dutch, to send us some.

Brian, my boy, time to become a teacher...

Ok, step by step instruction please, to someone who is a hopeless student.

I see a bird picture that I like.
I click on it
I get a list of mumbo jumbo blah blah blah...

What do I do next?

~Elana~

lovezebs I'm gonna make a thread now on how to do it step by step for everyone to see.

THANK YOU! Please explain the pasting thing. Do I need glue?
