Bird Photos

[Momto4FemaleFelines]

The cardinals and jays usually liked the black oil sunflower seed or corn over regular seed. I think our harsh weather and tons of snow this year has made the birdies hungrier than usual and therfore our feeders are way busier than usual. I created a sort of "natural" looking area at the corner of our driveway with some branches so my pictures would look more natural than the birds just on the driveway.

All the Joisey boids said to tell you "Thanks for the seed!!" It's good of you to help care for them this winter!

Do you get chickadees and finches coming around? I don't see them here in FL - I don't believe they migrate and they are not here all year round like the jays and cardinals. I miss the chickadees - they use to come to my feeder when I lived in Staten Island. They made such a great sound!

BTW, both the jays and the cardinals will appreciate a few peanuts as well. I used to put out a peanut suet tray for them when I lived up north. Can't do it down here; they don't need the fats for one and it melts all over the place!! Well, usually - it's been cold here !!!!

Cathy, Yes, we do indeed get chickadees and finch.
The chickadees are hard to photograph from a distance even though I have a 12x optical zoom...it just isn't enough...they haven't been around as much this year as they have in the past.
I have a few pics of finch that I just caught a week or so ago!












I can't find the Gold Finch picture
We're almost out of bird seed and can only afford it if it's on sale.

Oh gosh they're the cutest little birdies! Thanks so much for sharing those amazing photos! You did a wonderful job on the photos, they're lovely. I love how puffed out all those little birds are, so, so adorable. I really wish I could feed the birds but my dogs are so prey driven, it would be a disaster for any birds that ventured to the ground to eat the fallen seeds and to squirrels who surely would try to sneak some seeds. Things would not end well for the unlucky animals that couldn't get away from my dogs My doggies are SO lovely and friendly, but not to critters that get too close.

Great pictures! I always love seeing the little titmice, they're just so darn cute!

I see both chickadees and finches around my yard. Though, I'm a bit north east of you so maybe that's why?

The pictures are lovely. I wish we would get blue jays and cardinals around here but the only birds coming around seem to be chickadees, finches, blackbirds, canaries, and most of all raven and crows.

Canaries, really?

Probably, I don't think I'm in their range. I'll look it up when I get home. Aren't they so little and round and cute!?! I love them!
