Most days, my morning starts pretty early. Too early for the sun and too early for the birds.
Which is a shame, because our birdfeeder is perfectly positioned right outside the dining room window, and I love watching the birds as I’m having my breakfast.
Over the holidays, my days started a little later and I was able to share my breakfast with a few feathered folk.
The woodpecker (above) was the top of the pecking order until the dove (below) came along. Despite their reputation, this guy is not at all peaceful. He wants all the seeds for himself.
I highly recommend this simple style of birdfeeder. The birds seem to really like it, and it’s easy to fill and clean. I posted plans way back when I first made it. You can download them here.
What birds do you see at your house? Do you have a birdfeeder?
You’ve taken beautiful pictures Julia!
I don’t have my feeder out yet. My birds are probably staging a protest.
Thanks. I was super proud of how these photos turned out. I got a very late start to my day because I spent so long watching the birds.
What a spectacular array of birds! I especially enjoy the gorgeous profile of that cardinal. Beautiful, and great photos!
I was waiting longest for him to come within camera range. He’s my favourite too.
