We've had some really cold weather and I'm hopeful that our local bears have gone into hibernation, or actually the semi-hibernation that they find comfortable in our forests. Bears are attracted to bird feeders and I've had a couple of feeders destroyed by them in past years.
On the day before Thanksgiving, I put up a feeder for goldfinches. Since then I've added a few others and the birds are enjoying them.

Hello, I love all your pretty birds. I have not seen the goldfinches lately. I love the Jay and the woodpecker. I hope the bears do not come around. Thank you so much for linking up your post. I appreciate your comment and visit too. Happy Sunday, enjoy your day!
ReplyDeleteGreat bird photos! Love the Woodpecker!
ReplyDeleteHave a wonderful day!
I'm sure the birds are very happy! We have feeders in our backyard too - and I'm enjoying the many birds that stop by.
ReplyDeleteI'm filling my feeders again, too. I usually just fill in the winter. I probably wouldn't fill them if I had to worry about bears. Scary! Love the red-bellied woodpecker!
ReplyDeleteTo think of living in bear country!! Wow...great birds!
ReplyDeleteThanks for linking in with us birders at I'd Rather B Birdin' this weekend!
nice to have feeders, I added a few more this last week. I haven't had the bears but have heard some tales and seen them in action.
ReplyDeleteVery pretty visitors!
ReplyDeleteWhen we lived in Ne Mexico we had to bring the feeders in at night. This worked until we came home from the store one afternoon and found a bear in our front yard destroying the feeder.
ReplyDeleteCute and colourful. They know where the food is. :)
ReplyDeleteI have added more too! I am always glad to feed the birds!
ReplyDeleteGreat bird photos. I love that first one!
ReplyDeleteGreat shot of the red bellied woodpecker! I don't think I would want to attract bears to my yard along with the birds, yikes.
ReplyDeleteFabulous birds, so colourful.
ReplyDeleteAll the best Jan
I know the birds are happy about that!
