Morning Bloglanders!
I heard mom use that term
before so I wanted to borrow
it.
Yesterday morn we were on the
deck and mom was watching
the birds again as
she blogged.
Here we have a Tuffed
Titmouse. Mom said they
only seem to show up
in the spring and fall.
Well if they are flying south they
are hungry and fueling up here
at Lily's feeder.
This dude is noisy when
he flies in, those wings
are LOUD.
Red Cardinal.
Female Cardinal.
Mom was telling us that the male
hardly ever goes to the feeder but
when he does he tips it so seed
falls to the ground and he eats from
there. Although most times
he just usually comes with the
female and watches out over her.
Mom said that the Blue Jays
don't come to the feeder either.
Male or female.
Black birds and crows
don't either.
She finds that strange.
But the Chickadees come and
they eat well like the
Titmouse do.
Wren was here this morning but
by the time mom got
the camera loaded on the
phone it was gone.
Oh yeah, hummers were here to
but their feeder is on the other
side of this tree.
Mom is thinking that she needs
to put a feeder out front
by the front window so they
can start getting used to that
one too and Lily can still
watch the birds in the winter.
Or can you believe this, she is thinking
of getting a heater for the deck....
FOR LILY!!!
Do you feed the wildlife
in your area?
Thanks for stopping in to
check out my writing again,
Chey
No, we don't feed wildlife, not even birds. I have noticed the male cardinal is the lookout bodyguard many times. while she built the nest he was lookout, while babies were cared for, he was look out. kind of like humans. the heater sounds good to me. how about an electric pad for lily to lay on.
