I have no picture's to back up what I seen this morning, but when I got up I usually plop down at the kitchen table and look out to the feeder's in the backyard. I think some of these bird's were just passing through, maybe heading south. I was like a kid in a candy shop, I wanted to take pictures but there was to much going on so I just wrote down what was out there (some are always here).
Several Robin's eating the Poke berries I cut and put into a small pile near a tree.
Blue Jay
Dark-eyed Junco's
House Finch's
Black-capped Chickadee's
A Goldfinch
White-breasted Nuthatch's
Brown Creeper's :)
Chipping Sparrow
A Downy
A Hairy WP
House Sparrow's
and a Carolina Wren, which made my day for sure.
This was in about a 30 ft radius, it was a booonanza!!!
Well it lasted about 20 minutes and it was all over, everybody disappeared. I was thrilled because normally I see only a couple of birds, so I took it as passer's through. The Carolina Wren was a new one, and I didn't really mind not getting a pic, next time though. lol
Hairy woodpecker & a flock of tufted mice appeared early afternoon. Didn't go get the mail out of the box right away as did not want to chase them away. We mostly have downy wp although I know the hairys are around.
Lost my little W-b Nuthatch today, but it was his own fault. He would take seeds from the feeder in the backyard to the front yard and come back, but he would always take too sharp a turn (worried about someone else getting more seeds than him) around the corner of the house and smacked into an old wicker chair I had by the patio. Oh well there will be another to take his place I seen it a couple of days ago. Yes I moved the chair. lol
