My Birds

I previously mentioned that I am a backyard birdwatcher.  In doing so for many years, I have found myself “claiming” certain birds- I’ll say to my husband “My blue jay is back” or “My finches have made a nest in the bird box”.  Well, today my woodpecker is back!  He must have been lured back by the suet and corn I put out last week.

I have five bird feeders- some filled with corn, some with mixed seeds, 2 suet feeders and one platform feeder- right now it has cantaloupe seeds and pulp in it.  I must go out and fill the bird bath with warm water.
