Thanks, Kaila! ❤️ This is so much fun to share with you guys.


And speaking of... we had some amaze visitors today!



And check out our new friend!



ETA: Yesterday, husband had to zip tie that tray on because the freaking doves broke it. We had some unkind comments about the size of their backends. 😅

Oh how cool is that. A woodpecker pecking on the plastic feeder. Now you have blue jays. Wow! Your bird feeder is attracting all kinds of birds.

Stanley Cup Playoffs are waiting (and so is husband 🤗). See you wonderful peeps tomorrow. Nice night!

@PeppermintPatty
Do you get that type of gorgeous Jays, in your area ?
Or do you get the other type of jay?

Some of both?

I get the same exact type as @Medusa

When I was feeding them, yes. We stopped feeding them cause we were getting a lot of mice in our house. We could hear them scratching against our cement walls and saw mice poops in our silverware drawer. Now that we aren’t feeding them we no longer have the problem. We WILL be feeding the hummingbirds this summer though.

When we fed them we had chickadees , junco’s, assorted finches, sparrows, nut hatches, wood peckers, both downy and hairy, cardinals, blue jays, pigeons, mourning doves, crows,

I will leave this post open just in case I think of any other birds.

A big thanks from me, @Medusa. It's really lovely to observe the activity at your bird feeder, and of course different birds to those I can see in the UK. As I don't have a garden, the only birds I see from my window are herring gulls and pigeons. ;) I have to go to the park to see something other than that. 😁

You get a wonderful variety of birds where you are. :)

I know what you mean about mice! Ugh, we have "mouse season" where I live and have to spray for them every year. (I think we talked about that a while back on @Kaila's thread, didn't we? --or was that another thread? I put up a picture of the all natural spray I use. --Pardon the tangent. 😅 )

No, I don't recall that pleasant topic, overtaking a day of our 'gentle ' thread.
😊😁😄😅🤣

Husband took a video of the birdies at his impromptu fountain. :) He's planning on dressing it up a bit, but in the meantime the birdies (and an occasional squirrel) seem to be enjoying the moving water.

This is such a smart idea. Birds love a fresh clean birdbath but cleaning the water everyday is such a chore. Is the same water circulating or is that fresh clean water. How is the bath not over flowing?

It is the same water, but I think husband is switching it out each day. I confess to not being sure about that. It's moving through the fountain thingy which is solar powered. :)
