Local Count

Now that most fledglings are off their nests I came out to a conclusion that the most prolific species in my local birds population for this season are the House Finch.

Making comparisons to the field sparrows, northern cardinals, song sparrows, northern mockingbirds, carolina chickadees and mourning sparrows. By far the house finches are more prolific this year. I put northern cardinals in second place.

Early in the morning I refill the feeders and I can see birds on my roof top and trees birds waiting. As soon as I finish the feeders placed on the deck’s rail a mockingbird comes to eat, I’m still at about three feeds from him and he doesn’t mind, he’s used to humans I guess.

I love all that stuff with birds!

Local Friends

Field Sparrows are to my opinion, my regular local visitors. Since day one that I moved to my new home in Georgia I’ve seen them flying around my backyard. Some people call them “cute little birds” of course I can’t blame them because they are that.

I know that these birds do not migrate because I see them all year round, which is not bad at all! I like to see them around.

Here are some pictures for you!
