One evening I dined alone at Ma Bourgogne at the Place des Vosges. As I enjoyed mon apéritif, I had several little friends join me. They didn't seem a bit intimidated by my camera!

Paris je t'aime
I fell in love with Paris in March 2007. It was as the French say, le coup de foudre : love at first sight. As a result of that trip, my photography took another direction. Since that time I have pursued a career of sorts in photography and dreamed of returning to the City of Light. November 2008 found me strolling the streets of Paris once again. My first visit I was so overwhelmed with the incredible beauty of the city, I photographed it as a "tourist". In 2008 I returned and I looked at the city with more of a photographer's eye. I wanted to capture the unique, the small details, and oh yes - the people! This blog was started as a photo diary of that trip, but I have been most fortunate to return to the city j'adore 15 times since. Each time I leave, I wipe a tear and start planning my list for the next trip. Paris may well be a moveable feast, but I think it's best savored in person! Someone told me that once you have been to Paris, you will leave a piece of your heart. I left mine right there, but I brought home some wonderful memories. It is my pleasure to share them with you.

Did they hop on into the bread basket? Looks like he's ready. Love the top picture.....and of course you shared....
These are 'moineau' which we know as sparrows. This is a female house sparrow.
Don't you love these little guys? I call them the clean-up crew. :-)
Immagine molto tenera e simpatica

How entrancing!
Jane
And being a generous soul, you shared your food with them!
Oh I am loving how you caught him mid vocalizing .. he was saying HEY! HEY! Gimme a little pain, merci!
Too cute!
Is he asking, "Es-tu ma maman?"
So cute how you caught him singing for his supper!
I adore these precious little tweeters
These little guys are absolutely adorable! Thanks for sharing!
I've had dinner with that guy!
Oops...I just read that Julie said he was a she....so sorry...
I don't think your camera would bother anyone - you can take my picture anytime! But that birdie is so adorable and I love the texture of the chair beneath the bird - as if perched on a branch, but in Paris of course it has to be a bistro chair outside!
Cheeky little birds! Very cute.
Hi Virginia, it's nice to meet you on the shuttle. I love your pictures and your passion for all beatiful and sweet things in everyday life! I follow your blog and look forward to more pictures. Thank you!
Yisi,
How nice of you to stop by and leave a comment. I enjoyed meeting you today as well. I hope your friend has a good stay in Paris. He's a lucky guy!
