Hi all, My wife always had a bird feeder, and loves to feed the birds. Most of the time she just through seed on the ground. All she wanted for xmas is some bird houses, and some feeders. Ok thats easy, but she also wanted me to build a squirrel proof hanger to put them on. Now thats not so easy!! But i did it... and now we have a lot of different kinds of birds that we didn't have before. When i went out to set up a heated bird bath these little birds kept landing right next to me. Well now i know their called chickadees. I looked them up on my computer, and seen a video of someone feeding them out of their hand. So back out i went. I put some seeds in my hand and "WAHLA" they just kept landing in my hand. Now that was pretty special to me, and got me interested in taking some pictures. Its only been a few days and, i got a lot of great birds... and not so great pictures.
