nice!!!
love bird watching I hope to see some in the yared soon,
I most likely don't know the names of the different birds though.
I didnt see any today, but when I was up at 5 am tending to Zoodle when I opened the patio door there were tons of birds chirping!
Truly this has got to be a sign spring is coming soon!
Has anyone seen a Robin yet?
Just this past month there was a sparrow eating in my log cabin bird feeder when all at once another bird swooped down and grabbed it in its claws. The bird was the size of a Canada Jay and about the same colour but it had more white on it. After searching the bird books that I have, I think it was loggerhead shrike which will do this and attack other birds ever larger themselves. When I opened the door to scare off this bird it flew away with the sparrow in its claws. Apparently they will impale their kill on a tree branch or stick. It was the first time I had ever seen this bird.
Ohhh something to watch for! I'll keep my eyes open. :)
Robins, chickadees, juncos (we have them too!), northern flickers (woodpeckers), and some finches in the back yard today. Plus hearing the red winded blackbirds
Seen Robins for a while now, actually a pair of them :)
The Steller's Jay stays all year round so there is not a day that I don't get to see a bird :)
Honest!
So much for feeding them!
Too bad they all look the same, or I'd have a good talk with this one!
Apparently someone in town saw a Robin! Word is spreading like wildfire... But I think that poor Robin is in for a shock... I don't think this is a 'real' spring yet...
