wal-mart is also where i shop for bird-feeding supplies. birdwatching is my most favorite hobby. i sit out back with my binoculars and hand held hummingbird feeder all the time in the summer. i truly love birds! im wanna get one as a pet, but my old man says no way! he dont want bird ca-ca everywhere!

he's so mean!



LOL. I have, ah, a pole-feeder filled with black oil sunflower seeds in the front yard (my room overlooks the front yard), a tube feeder with black oil sunflower seeds, a sock feeder with nyjer seed, and a suet feeder with suet-cake in the citrus tree. And yes, I buy the sunflower seeds by the 25-pound bags. lol. In wintertime, house finches, purple finches, and scrub-jays will drain the pole feeder and the tube feeder in two or three days flat. I also see American Goldfinches, Lesser Goldfinches, White-Crowned Sparrows, and Northern Mockingbirds. I've also seen Yellow-Rumped Warblers. Oh, and I was extremely lucky to have a Northern Flicker hybrid visit me last fall.



you have alot of the same birds as we have here in cincinnati. i dont think ive seen a warbler. i love woodpeckers, wrens, cardinals, finches, titmice, chickadees and of course hummingbirds. those bluejays sure are noisy!

im not so fond of the European Starlings that will empty our feeders in a matter of hours..we've also lost several suet feeders from the squirrels carting them off somewhere

dont they realize we aren't offering take out!!
