Hi Tweets and Rosie

I haven't posted for a while. haven't been feeding my yard birds. had
a chestnut back chickadee check out the nest box that she used last
year. didn't know if she nested or not. last week i decided i would
spend the money i don't have and start feeding again.......i am glad i
did! now have baby birds chirping in the nest. and mama feeding them
suit! also have 1 siskin, 6-8 goldfinches, house finches, junco -
yes junco. i have them year round, especially when i feed on a regular
basis. had a red tailed hawk fly over my yard. have green backed
swallows using a nest box. when the v-g are doe, then the tree swallows
will take their turn .

as far as water fowl goes, the have mostly gone for the summer......
