For the first time I have seen two red bellied woodpeckers in my backyard. So excited to see these beautiful birds.
Got a quick shot of one at the deck feeder earlier. They enjoy the peanuts I put out. Then I saw another one in...

This time of year there are always birds at the feeder. The grackles seem to take over when they show up.
I put some suet feeders in the trees. Many birds like this during the colder times of the year. Woodpeckers like the suet...

We got back from Portland Friday afternoon. I glanced out the window and saw this little Downy Woodpecker on my suet feeder, not where the food is, but clinging to the side. They do this sometimes for unknown reasons.
But this...

When I was a tot living on a ranch we would call SOOEY SOOEY to get the hogs to come when we "slopped" (fed) them. These days, I live in a trailer park and have transitioned to feeding birds. It's a much neater...

After we got back from Anne's doc appointment, I was in the back yard refilling my bird feeders. It occurs to me that I may not be able to type the name of the little flock of birds eating suet in the photo. I will say they are...

I usually throw some left over outside away from the building. Since than I have attracked some squirels, chickadee and blue jays.
The chickadees are the one that I will be able to hand feed soon. They are as scared as...

I had my suet out on a tail prop feeder. Woodpeckers and Flickers like to sit with their tails propped against it like they do in trees. A pair of male and female woodpeckers had been alternating, coming by morning and evening. I...

I purchased some suet this winter and put it out in a little “cage” on my hummingbird feeder rack this winter and the birds loved it. They gobbled it up very fast. I was so excited, seeing all the different types of birds that...

I know that people in many countries write here and in some places football is what we call soccer in the US. They won't watch or care about the Super Bowl. It is a big deal in the US though.
Are you going to watch the game? Not...

I rinsed out and refilled my hummingbird feeder early this morning, and one or more has been visiting several times already. I will go to my part-time job at the birding store, where we sell hummingbird feeders and a variety of...

Here is a picture of my hairy woodpecker! I have no idea why they call it that, he has feathers instead of hair. But he's a very pretty bird and visits the suet feeder every day. That makes 2 kinds of woodpeckers I've identified...

Look at the picture I've included! Last week I told you about my furry visitor, he lives at the top of the tree outside my window. Now that the leaves are gone, I can see his nest. Today he came down when it began to snow and...

I had too much oatmeal bread for my husband and I to eat all of it, so I made that into stuffing yesterday. Also had raisin cinnamon scones that came out too dry, so made bread pudding out of them.
Thursday is my day, usually...

It's THE CROWS!!!
I'd forgotten, after nearly thirty years away from my home (Ohio) how the crows congregate in December. Funny how they're not in my neighborhood, 3/4 mile away from the center of the city. Anyway, in the...

For the past couple of days I was hearing these strange noises that I couldn't figure out. Then I recalled the red Maple I have out front & remembered the woodpeckers I have in it often. Now I have not heard of woodpeckers at the...
