My Feathered Friends
For this Artsy Saturday post, I want to show you a cherished picture of some of my feathered friends. Redheaded woodpeckers are certainly a colorful part of that family. I wonder why nature gave them their colors. It probably has something to do with attracting the opposite sex. Even human women seem to go for flashy guys. Continue reading My Feathered Friends
In A Panic…
  It is supposed to get down below zero tonight here in Indiana and I think all my feathered friends know it as they are in a panic mode below the feeder.  I wish I could bring them all inside but I know that would be messy and impossible.  🙂 Continue reading In A Panic…
The Invasion of….
Rose Breasted Grosebeaks have taken over the feeder today. They travel through to I don’t know where about this time of year. I always enjoy seeing them for a few weeks. Continue reading The Invasion of….
Winter Cardinals in the Old Apple Tree
I never tire of taking more pictures of the winter cardinals in the old apple tree in our backyard. As always they are gobbling up the sunflower seeds at our feeder after the recent winter storm. Click on the image to see a larger version… Continue reading Winter Cardinals in the Old Apple Tree
Birds In Flight
Just a quick pic that I took recently. The blue clip is to keep the racoons from stealing the suet 🙂 Continue reading Birds In Flight
The Blue Jays of Life…
Seeing all the blue jays hoarding the feeder just now got me to thinking about life. It doesn’t take much to get me to thinking these days. 🙂 We feed over half a ton of sunflower seed annually in our backyard feeders. There is a big variety of birds that come and go. Cardinals are one of my favorites probably because of their bright color. … Continue reading The Blue Jays of Life…
Coexisting Neighbors…
The Blue Jay and the Red-bellied Woodpecker are not terribly friendly with each other but they do, for the most part coexist with each other at our feeder. If only humanity could accomplish the same thing. Coexisting instead of the constant wars. Â If only…. Continue reading Coexisting Neighbors…
Feathered Friends…
I often joke that we must feed half the birds in our county and I wonder who feeds the other half? But kidding aside I do get a lot pleasure over the dreary winter months watching my feathered friends, especially the woodpecker who come for their daily round at the suet cakes. Continue reading Feathered Friends…
More Birds Of Winter
There must be one-hundred cardinals at our feeder today. I think they sense that more snow is coming. But they are not the only ones here. As you can see the hairy woodpeckers have joined the crew at the suet cakes.  The more the merrier…. I have downloaded some larger photos this time. Click on the image to see it in more detail.

Waiting….
The temps went to -14 degrees last night. When that happens our backyard feeder becomes a frenzied state the next morning. The top picture is of the many cardinals and blue jays waiting in the old apple tree for their time at the feeder below. We go through about 80 lbs of seed a week when snow blankets everything. Continue reading Waiting….
Around the Homestead…
Let’s use this post to show some pictures of my current homestead. Since we live in the country we have a variety of critters who visit us regularly. We also have plenty of room for flowers (although weeding them is another story). Â We don’t get out in the gardens much this time of year as it is just so darn hot out there! I wish … Continue reading Around the Homestead…
