I have very intelligent wild birds up here in the north country....Dux could learn a thing or two from them. A couple weeks ago we were watching TV in the evening and a male Red breasted Grosbeak flew to the window on the north side of our living room and started pecking at the window and...

I think Zombism is spreading to my chickens

I have no dead rats,, my cats eat them when they kill one,,,which is not very often.

Any DUX egg fed to anything to prevent it from hatching is a good start.

I just came in to munch on lunch carrot and I have 4 pairs of rose breasted grosbeaks on my feeders! I wish they stayed here year round, so pretty.

You had time to get a few pictures but could not get a clean shot at it?

It does and it counts towards a congressional Medal of Honor.

If you have them now we should get them next week!

Summer must be here. My first Rose breasted Grosbeak of the year showed this morning. They are one of the prettiest birds we have. I had to steal a photo has it is too dark to get a picture today. ..or my eyes are too bad today to see well enough to get the picture.

Sin bin her!!!

Nope she meant what she said...hehehe

Look at all the great birds you have! I wish I had something that took as good of pictures as yours takes.

I use to think, we had boring birds here in Minnesota. We do not. When I started feeding them, (the old persons hobby as my kids call it) I discovered a world of beautiful brilliant colors.

Finches, snowbirds, bluejays, Cardinals, nuthatches and a few chipping sparrows. Snowbirds are actually Juncos.

I figured an oriole also, never saw one of those Kalyfornia ones before...

I finally got the female Cardinal, not well, but I got her.

Birds are coming in in huge numbers in this storm. I think I saw a Cassin's finch in amongst our house finches. The crest is easy to see and the belly is white compared to the stripes on the house finches. Cassin's are not in this area. Bird pictures from today:

It has been a while since we posted on this thread, however, in the middle of this snow storm I have had nothing to do but sit at the window and drink tea. This guy and his mate showed up. I tried to get her picture but she was camera shy. She is stunning this time of the year.

That stupid turkey is one of mine. She has figured instead of cleaning up the waste seeds under the feeders, this one figured out, one little jump and she gets fresh seeds.. And it drives my wife bonkers when she is up there eating, so that is a bonus!

We would love to have you join us!! This is a Minnesota Winter Hummingbird: Notice the innocent smile, the sweet song it sings and the beating wings.. I just love this.... I am freezing from snow plowing and seeing the stupid turkey jump into that feeder makes my day..
