The 52-year-old actress recently revealed on social media that, after developing an interest in birdwatching and setting up a bird feeder at her Southern California home, she’s ready to take her hobby to the next level.
Known for her amusing and relatable home videos, Garner humorously told fans that she’s now starting a “bird modeling” agency, inspired by the way the visiting birds pose at her feeder.
“I just became a birder, and it turns out that my yard has the prettiest birds in all of California,” she said in her video, adding that she had a “little modeling agency” for all the varieties that visited her yard, including Dark-eyed junco, California towhee, and more.
“I don’t know what to tell you! They’re gorgeous…drop dead,” she excitedly concluded, before including a montage of some birds snapped inside her feed, sound tracked by RuPaul’s “Supermodel (You Better Work).”
“Contact me for your bird modeling needs,” she quipped alongside the shots, which also highlighted the expansive lush gardens in her yard, covered to the brim with foliage, plus the marble path leading up to the home.
Fans loved being in the Jennifer-as-birder timeline, with actress Angela Kinsey even commenting: “Yaasssss!!!! Welcome to the bird lady club! Hit me up for all the hummingbird accounts.”
One of her followers wrote: “Same a year ago I couldn’t name one bird. All of a sudden I have six bird feeders, 2 hummingbird feeders and I google birds all day and watch with my binoculars. I don’t even know who I am,” another added: “This is the best post!!! I want to be a birder!!!! OMG!!” and a third also gushed: “I’m hearing Madonna say ‘strike a pose’ as I watch this!”Reynolds, Deadpool & Wolverineemiere, New York.
The Hollywood icon lives in her $8 million home with her three children from her marriage to Ben Affleck: 12-year-old Samuel, 15-year-old Fin, and 18-year-old Violet, who may soon be heading off to university after graduating this spring (pun intended).
In May, Jennifer documented the emotional rollercoaster of having a high school graduate in the family by sharing outtakes from her daughter’s graduation ceremony, along with the accompanying tears.
“Tell me you have a graduate without telling me you have a graduate,” she captioned the post, adding a “(bless our hearts)” as her many famous friends reached out to empathize.
She followed that up with a tender tribute to the elementary school all three of her children attended after all her kids had finished their time there, penning on social media: “A little gratitude for our wonderful family elementary school at the end of 13 years together applies to all educators: thank you for doing what you do. And congratulations to all the mamas out there with kids moving from one phase to the next.”
