What’s Up? – Busy Does It!
Busy Does It!
We enjoyed the whole past week with excellent weather (Really!) Sunny days, warmer and perfect to do anything outdoors. Next is a brief report of what’s happening in my backyard.
- Birds are showing up to the feeders very early and…They are having a tremendous appetite!
- The suet-seed mix is a success, most birds love it. They eat a whole suet cake daily!
- This week I saw a Rose-breasted Grosbeak through my kitchen window while I was eating lunch. I didn’t have my camera with me. I’m hoping that he will come back again.
- My Downy Woodpecker has a mate now.
- The European Starlings are totally loving the suet. They fight each other for it!
- I had the Brown Thrasher coming to eat the suet too! Even when they love to eat from the ground.
- I saw another pair of Eastern Bluebirds trying an old empty bird house I have sitting on the deck’s handrail. I don’t have photos yet.
- I also had a n American Crow walking around and making noise on my deck.
As you can see, my backyard is getting busier by the minute.
