Visitors

Hi everyone! I hope that all of you that celebrated Thanksgiving had a great time with your 

loved ones.  For me, kids were out of school, I just had to place everything else on hold and enjoy 

my two bundles of joy.  Now they're back in school, I finally get to do my thing like sit around and 

just enjoy the silence, cleaning the garden, and of course do some blogging to.

 I'm very excited that the suet doesn't melt with the warm summer weather anymore!

 I've had put suet out for awhile, but it took some time for the woodpeckers to notice it. 

I don't know if this woodpecker had been at the feeder before, 

but these are the pictures of the first time I saw it.

I also have this other one visiting me too. 

Then I have this finch couple, they're kind of funny. The female knows there is something not right at the window and keeps a sharp eye on it, at first the male suspects it too, but then he just goes on eating.

Not her, nobody is going to fool her, she is sure someone is watching them!

Thank you for reading!!

Sharing with you and Wild Bird Wednesday 

Rainy Day

I love birds! And I'm against keeping them in cages!

So, what do I do to get close to them? I feed them.  I have a feeder beside my kitchen window. And that's how I get close to them.

I've seen pictures of people feeding birds from their hands. That's something that I soo want to happen to me. But all the times we (my daughter also dreams of feeding birds from her hand) sit out there with bird food in our hands, the birds won't come!

To take pictures of them, I turn off all the lights and get as close as I can to the window. I also took a couple of slats out of my blinds.


Robins are fun to watch! They stand still for little bit, and then they take off and start tugging out earth
worms.

























Since I'm a gardener, I know the importance of having worms in the soil.  Sometimes I get mad with the robins for eating my worms. I made a deal with this one. He posed for my blog picture, and I let him have some of my worms.  :)
