New Customers

Yesterday, we headed over to the bird store in search of a goldfinch feeder. Mission accomplished! We got a feeder that has wire mesh all the way around, so that the goldfinches can cling onto it anywhere. We came home, filled it up with Nyjer seed, and hung it up in the tree in our back yard. It was probably only a couple of hours before our first new customers found the feeder. Now, in addition to the many birds who freqent our safflower feeder (juncos, titmice, cardinals, house finches, chickadees, even an occasional/confused woodpecker), we have goldfinches joining our backyard party.

Stay tuned next month, when we put out our hummingbird feeder.
