I’ve mentioned several times that Betsy has become an avid birder. She keeps a pair of binoculars by her favorite chair and periodically consults several books and blogs in her attempts to identify new birds that come to our feeders.
We now have six stations where the birds can get food. Betsy has tried her best to provide the favorite food of each of the different birds in our area. Judging by the numbers of ‘feathered friends’ on our deck, I would say that Betsy has done a good job.
I guess we’re running a cafeteria for birds. I will admit that the birds are interesting, and the young ones are even cute. But they sure can eat!! It seems that we’re having to refill feeders every time we turn around.
I’m glad Betsy likes her birds. I just hope we can continue to afford to feed them!
