More Birds in the Winter Garden in all Sizes
As the temperatures have dropped, I’ve had to keep the water thawed and available for the birds, and the hummingbird feeders, as well. Today they appreciated it as dozens of birds, visited throughout the day. Starting with Chestnut-backed Chickadees, and Golden-crowned Kinglets.

A Burst of Color on a Dreary Winter’s Day
We’ve had a rather dull start to 2025, from the point of view of the weather: drizzly when not pouring rain, cold but not enough to snow. It makes me long for spring but we’ve quite a ways to go! In the meantime, I… Continue Reading “A Burst of Color on a Dreary Winter’s Day”

Birdwatching at Coulon Park
I went for a walk at Coulon Park on a gray and cloudy day. A Crow was also out for a walk, and startled when I took his picture; I assured him I was on his side. Another bird landed in a distant tree… Continue Reading “Birdwatching at Coulon Park”
Hummingbirds through the Window
Due to the cold snap this week, I decided to add additional feeders for the hummingbirds, and that included a new location, the maple tree in front of the house. I don’t know why I didn’t think of it before; they love perching in… Continue Reading “Hummingbirds through the Window”
