Title: more gold action
Post by: boneaddict on May 11, 2008, 07:26:23 AM: I've got about 5 pairs around my house. I'm not sure if they are migrating or sticking around. They are acting pretty territorial and singing quite the tunes....

Great pictures. We have them here at our place. Sometime they stay, sometime they don't. We have feeders full of sunflower seeds, and they are filled daily. Finches all over the place, and then there are the hummingbirds. Each year we get more and more hummingbirds. We get all kinds of birds that are just passing through. Fun to watch.
And for mothers day today, we have very windy conditions, and 42 degrees.. I had to go to town yesterday and buy more pellets for the stove. Is it ever going to warm up.

Post by: boneaddict on May 11, 2008, 09:45:16 AM: I don't think so. Maybe why they decided to hang around a bit. I have so dang blasted many english sparrows. Lots of white crown ones as well, that I don't even bother with the feed. I have alot of natural stuff. I put up a hummingbird feeder for the Mrs, for mothers day right outside her kitchen window. ALready had a visitor. We don't have many though, but as the lilacs mature and alot of my other stuff, I bet we get more. I understand my ex-Mother-in-law was just in Birds and Blooms with an article on hummers. She used to get TONS. They are in Inchelium, over on the Rez, South of Colville. They used to buzz like skeeters. There would be thirty at atime looking for a sip of nectar. I miss that. We used to have several nesting pairs in Twisp that we would watch. I hope I cna have a couple around this year.

However I am having no luck with the big birds that gobble. am getting answers,but not close. It is supposed to warm up next week, maybe then. It would help if I got my butt out there more often
