I am really enjoying my bird feeder - we have blue jays, chickadees, sparrows, doves, and a mommy AND daddy cardinal that visit us every day!Jillie Bean (AKA Bubba's Sis)https://www.blogger.com/profile/09255965229568186791noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26259561.post-4349794347591870652007-09-24T22:59:00.000-04:002007-09-24T22:59:00.000-04:00Mike (retrodaddy) you may always have a busy signa...Mike (retrodaddy) you may always have a busy signal on the house phone, but that was very funny.

Some little chickadees and wrens too, along with a lot of sparrows.<BR/><BR/>If you had a feeder in the vicinty before, they should find it pretty quick. Even if you didn't have one close-by, they will still find it. We put up a squirrel feeder a couple of years ago (with corn cobs) and I nearly gave up hope - it took them almost 4 MONTHS to find it. :) They did though, and now they eat a LOT of corn!Stacy at Exceedingly Mundanehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10193142015462051142noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26259561.post-41867046693911523612007-09-24T19:49:00.000-04:002007-09-24T19:49:00.000-04:00I love birds and watching them.

So no birds really flock here.<BR/><BR/>AMAZINGLY, we do have a log of hummingbirds. Two of which always get stuck in our Garage just about every time it opens.<BR/><BR/>I have found that I love watching them. Next year I am going to buy a few hummingbird feeders for the front of the house.<BR/><BR/>I wish we would get more colorful birds here....I did see a blue jay about 5 months ago.Suprinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02546876476752445817noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26259561.post-56706901531881274022007-09-24T18:55:00.000-04:002007-09-24T18:55:00.000-04:00Backyard bird watching is one of our happiest past...Backyard bird watching is one of our happiest pastimes.

We filled it back up and they eventually started coming back, but it took a while.

So cute. <BR/><BR/>We took Nate to the National Aviary (here in Pittsburgh) and for some reason those birds scare me a little bit. They are so use to people they just swoop right at ya. :)Krajcimamahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17389474797626495256noreply@blogger.com
