Bernie Posted March 7, 2007 Report Posted March 7, 2007 I can tell which of my customers feed the birds too. Their car and truck air filter housings are full of bird seed. Seems its a good place for mice and chipmunks to store their seeds in.
glirw Posted March 8, 2007 Report Posted March 8, 2007 I don't currently feed the birds, but I'm thinking of starting to feed the bees.
Greencoachdog Posted March 8, 2007 Report Posted March 8, 2007 I also feed the birds, I really like to see the Gold Finches at the upsidedown feeder. They're one of the few birds that are comfortable feeding upsidedown and it keeps the other birds from emptying thier feeder. Notice the upsidedown Gold Finch on the feeder just to the right of center? I also get a good number of Bluebirds in the yard, they don't eat from the feeders... but I think they feel safety in numbers with the other birds around. I also get alot of Eastern Meadow Larks too, they don't eat from the feeders either... but feel safer with other birds around. I really like thier bright yellow breasts with the burnt umber bib.
bucktail Posted March 8, 2007 Report Posted March 8, 2007 I feed them and have had a Mockingbird hang out all year. I fed them after I saw him hoping to help him make it thru the winter. They usually don't eat seeds but insects. He was there this morning so I think he is going to make it. Also I have a pair of cardinals that always nest in the back.
