Name: Paul Utah (Zone 5b) Grandchildren are my greatest joy.
I need to start taking pictures to contribute to this forum. The birds are eating me out of house and home. At my hanging feeders I have Goldfinches, Chickadees, and House Finches. I've made a table feeder out of an old aquarium stand with a tray for ground feeders and have Juncos in a variety of colors, sparrows which are so similar that I can't decided which are which, and Eurasian Doves. I saw a Morning Dove briefly yesterday but a Eurasian drove it away. The Eurasians are taking over from the more timid Morning Doves. I have the aggressive Scrub Jays and Quail picking up feed that makes it to the ground. One of the mixes I bought contains a lot of corn which the birds don't eat but the deer which are wintering in my neighborhood clean that up. Bird feeding seems to be popular here. When I was grocery shopping yesterday the lady ahead of me in line had a large sack of Black Oil Sunflower seeds and the lady in the next checkout also had bird feed. What does everyone feed?
