Aren't they pretty birds, Bea? I haven't seen any here this year. I think it's too COLD for them. The other day I unplugged the bird water. The next morning a sparrow was "sitting on the water" trying to get his little beak in.
They love to sit in the feeder and swing in the wind; which we've had more than our share of this month.
Notice my pathetic lilac bush? I know nothing about them so about 3 years ago I cut it way back. It did have nice green leaves the next spring. I trimmed them into a big heart :-). Last year I had one or two teeny flowers. I'm putting Miracle Gro on them now.
