Birds

 

We really enjoy all the birds that frequent the area and have 5 bird feeders hung in the trees beside our site.  The Finches are here year around as well as Sparrows, Doves, Quail and many other bird species that I cannot remember the names of at this moment and I am too lazy to look them up in our bird book.  The Finches are here every day dawn to dusk and such fun to watch, they are very active, and constantly vie for a space on the thistle bag and a very vocal as they sit in the trees and bushes waiting there turn to eat.  I can glance our the windows and see the birds while doing dishes, sewing or knitting and of course while watching TV, we have one of best spots in the park for bird watching and other campers come with camera in hand to take pictures.  We both are looking forward the hummingbirds returning which should be anytime now.  We hung up the feeder but so far no hummingbirds. 

We put the same seed in both bags but the Finches prefer the small bag

The mesh is finer in the small bag, maybe that is the reason

When it very windy the birds take shelter in the cactus.
