Al--

I am not all that handy.....or am afraid to try things that involve tools.
Just a matter of self-confidence....If I screw up--so what?
Someone posted a picture, not too long ago, of a web site that showed the upside down feeders.

I live in a pretty tight development, so I do not see too many unusual birds that would prefer
the woodlands, even though we have 'some" woods near us--as I live almost next to a High School.
I have seen Downy WP's--but never a PW. Never seen an Baltimore Oriole--nor a Blue Bird.
Lots and lots of other birds as well. Seen a Hawk in 2010, when we had 3' of snow, leisurely
devouring a bird on the high snow pile near my shed.
I took some pictures through my LR window--used a zoom--but they are not too clear....

Your shop view sound wonderful! I would love living on a bit bigger property than just 65'x100'.

2--The hawk having dinner---don't know what kind it is...
