The feeders have been very active lately and I am busy painting bird-houses to add to the trees.
Our friends Iain and Susan from http://proseccoandpolkadots.blogspot.ca/dropped by for a visit yesterday. Iain is an avid 'birder' and was able to tell me lots of interesting tid-bits on my birds.
He showed me two downy wood-peckers that were obviously courting one another just out-side my window. The male put on quite a show fluttering his wings and dancing around.
Susan loves Chickadees, and although she attracted many to her, she was hoping to have one land on her hand. No luck this time.
We enjoyed having visitors at the mouse-house and the cats were all out to meet them.
They knew Susan, who was my walking buddy, but were very interested in bothering...er...meeting Iain.
Sierra was sure to show off her flying skills as she flew over Iain's shoulder onto her favorite spot. Thankfully, Iain, too, is owned by cats and didn't run for the hills. :))
A mouse-house-warming gift from our visitors.
hugs, Deb

We are finally having Spring weather. The snow is rapidly melting and hopefully soon we'll see buds on the trees. We do have lots of mud if you need any. It's a mess out here.hugs, Deb
