We are in the midst of an unseasonably warm spell. If it doesn't cool down soon, I need to consider whether to keep feeding the birds. The seed and suet can attract bears, and they will destroy the feeders and perhaps tear into the trash.
For now I am still seeing plenty of birds, especially around the feeders. Here we see some sparrows, a gold finch, a red-bellied woodpecker, a male cardinal, and Canada geese. The geese would be around even if I don't feed them because people do so on the other side of the lake.

Great photo of the Sparrows!
ReplyDeleteLove the Woodpecker, too!
Have a wonderful day!
I wish I got sparrows at my feeder.
ReplyDeleteI saw tons of geese yesterday, some just stopping.I see nesting starting with a few species.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful bird visitors! I know what you mean about the bears...we have a much smaller critter we have to keep at bay, a ground-burrowing squirrel! One burrowed a tunnel under my house, and they can damage your underpinnings! We had to stop putting out seed.
ReplyDeleteVery good company to have around! Hopefully the bears sleep a little longer.
ReplyDeleteGlad we don't have to worry about bears around here, guess I'll complain a little less about the squirrels. Such a pretty goldfinch photo!
