My, my, what can I say .... I go away to do some things and get some sleep ... and missed all this!
Rita, spectacular!!! I can only hope my yard looks anywhere near that in the years to come. WOW!!! However, what I think you really need are more daylilies.
Margaret, wonderful shot of the Waxwings. You have a lovely variety of birds that visit you there. ♥ BTW, I've been meaning to ask you what you are doing up there on the roof in your avatar??
My hollies are young but they have berries already.
I back up to woods so there is much shelter and many nesting places and so forth for birds. And they love my 40+ year old Noway Spruce in the backyard. I have maples out front and there is a white dogwood in the front. Now that the leaves are all down, I can see clearly the nests that have been built in them.
I can't leave out my suet feeders ... no bears, but raccoons and deer.
