MOUTH TO MOUTH

Well I have totally enjoyed watching a male adult Cardinal feed his two fledglings. This is the first year after waiting three years to see this. My bird feeders have fed baby yellow finch, chickadees, pinesiskin and house finch and cardinals.

The young cardinals seem to be more at ease when they comes to feed. The adult male flies in with one or both fledglings and picks up seeds to put in " the mouths of babe's". The adult female also come by, but she either feeds herself or perches near by making the Cardinal caution tweet. These are the one species of birds that I know are at my feeders. just by hearing that sound.

Because I am inside my house, (how convenient is that?) and usually crawling on the floor around furniture so they don't see me, I get
some fun photos. http://www.birdsnestinginn.com/

Lesson one. Listen

Open wide

Nature is fascinating. But if it took me that long to get food...well,

let's just say I don't want to come back as a bird.

Shove it in.
