Thanks, Louise!

Squirrel Buster Plus - Pirate Attack

I couldn't resist grabbing the camera to record this funny video. No time to grab the tripod so you get all the camera shake. Also, just sing along with the pirate music - I'm not apologizing for that! AND don't fail to notice at the end ALL the feeders the squirrels are welcome to. I don't need mail from the squirrel lovers. I AM one!

Last Poll Winner

Our last poll topic was your favorite guests to your backyard feeders. The woodpecker edged out the bluebirds and cardinals - but it was very close.

This shot is a male Red-Bellied Woodpecker from Susan's garden in Sharpsburg.

Please take a moment to vote in our new poll about gifts you would prefer from the WBCPTC.

Who Am I?

Looks like a female Rose-breasted Grosbeak to me. Haven't seen any males so maybe she's migrating on her own. Hung around the feeder for awhile. Crappy picture because it was almost dark and my good camera's batteries were dead.

Common Grackle

Had to use my bird book to identify this as a "common grackle". There were two of them a few times this weekend and they sure loved to eat.

Woodpecker Takes the Lead

In honor of the woodpecker taking the lead in our opinion poll, I would like to post my newest guest to my feeders, the red-headed woodpecker. Isn't this a beautiful bird!

Woodpecker Takes the Lead

In honor of the woodpecker taking the lead as our favorite backyard visitor, I want to post my most recent addition to my backyard guests - my red-headed woodpecker. Isn't this a magnificent bird?!?!

Down-Under Pot

Susan P. gave me this lovely Down-Under Pot from your store and I had to show you what it looks like now. Everybody asks me about it. It's taken over my front entrance!

Editor's Note: The plant is an angel wing begonia.

Beautiful!

Guard Hummer

This hummingbird has claimed my feeder and sits and guards it most of the day. So if you want to dring any of my sugar water, you have to check with this bird first!

Recycled Glass Feeder

Tammy and Tim got in some beautiful new recycled glass feeders. I just had to have one. Here is my first visitor to the feeder. I filled it with patio mix, and the bluebird seems to think it is ok to add to his choices of food.
