We started feeding birds in our backyard. I love feeding birds. We purchased a ball of suet and seeds and put it up yesterday. It only took a day for some dark-eyed juncos to find it. We had up to 20 birds in our back yard.
I love that we have "wildlife" in our backyard and look forward to doing other things to make our backyard attractive to other birds.
It's been a long time since I've had a bird feeder. My last bird feeder was on a balcony 10 years ago and feeding birds was a messy proposition...
It brought me great joy in watching the birds feed.
I love birds -- really all of nature. Birds have a special place in my heart though -- so much so that I spent 5 years studying them in university.
I hope that some of the birds will chose to nest in our patch of trees behind our house -- nothing will give me greater pleasure. When I was a university student looking for bird nests in the backyards of cottagers in Delta, MB, I hoped that one day I would have birds nesting in my backyard. I'll let you know if that wish becomes true this spring!

Delta Marsh...It used to be all about the cowbirds, catbirds and brood parasitism back then. How time flies!
Yes, I think about those days at Delta Marsh fondly...
Miscellaneous thoughts about Delta...driving the field station trucks across the floodway...orange tape flags...rubber boots...mosquitoes...your Tilley Hat.
*smile*
I held a cowbird chick in my hand and remembered looking at it as it decided to poop...there was an oxbow in the marsh somewhere...many interesting people there, and some really nice people, like glen mcPhD...
