Wow, was that right near your house? That wind kept the bird action down in my yard today. You probably got more action since yours in more sheltered/enclosed.I need a cute stump to put the suet on too!
Yep, it was right across the street! The power went out and soon enough a fire truck showed up to secure the area. Yikes! Some birds, mostly sparrows today but it gets pretty windy here, too.
Holy shit, that tree! Yep, that would certainly explain a lack of power around those parts...oy vey. Adorable birdie, though. His cute presence happily pecking the suet makes up for the mishegaas of the fallen tree (in my opinion--of course, it wasn't MY power that went off....)
I need to get me some of that suet dough as I have the warblers (they are eating my pac no waste...but I think they would like the dough better). we need to go on a birding date soon. i will have sun/mon off in Feb now. date?
1. Why my power went out.
2. Townsend's Warblers LOVE suet dough!

ReplyDeleteI just had a Townsend's at my suet cake, but the Chestnut-backed Chickadees were higher in the pecking order and kept chasing it away.

I grew up in Oregon City. Sure miss those Townsend's Warblers!
