CarolDM @CarolDM (203396) • Nashville, Tennessee 28 Jan 22

Went out a few minutes ago to feed the birds. Not thinking about the weather. And saw the flurries falling. Came back inside. The last thing I need is to slip and fall on the deck. We shouldn't get much more than a dusting. But...

Feeder Has Been Moved Successfully

CarolDM @CarolDM (203396) • Nashville, Tennessee 19 Nov 19

The seed feeder I had on a pole in the garden was not attracting too many visitors. Most birds do not like the feeder to move when they eat. I did not think of that ahead of time. For now, I simply moved it to the bench in...

I was out shopping with my mother yesterday and I told her I needed to buy bird food. She said "What? You don't need to feed the birds in the Summer. They can find their own food!" I said "Well the birds don't know that....
