Bird watching

[ShrekDawg]

That's a good idea. I'm going to try but it's not one widow.. it's the whole front of the house. She is up early before dawn and basically bounces around the deck, roof and windowsills . At first I thought she was a bird that was kept in that somehow got out of her cage but no she's a wild bird . I think I'm going to try to get those blackbird stick on's for the window I've seen them before and people use them so that birds don't fly into the window . Thanks for the advice

Wow, silly bird! Lol

I have the two top ones and I probably seen the other two on the bottom but they probably mixed with the goldfinches . They are beautiful

I FOUND A BIRD NEST!!

Well, my dad found it lol idk how i missed it, it's relatively obvious

Also found a cute chipmunk.

What kind of bird is it? I know it's been identified before but I forget lol

And you don't think I disturbed her, do you? :/

 

[TwoCrows]

Hmmm.....I cant tell what kind it is. I doubt you disturbed her though. ☺

Well that's good to know! Thanks

And I might be wrong but I think this is the one that was under bushes eating the apple

It has a really pointy beak, almost Oriole like? Maybe? Orioles like fruit.

I think you are right

 

[ShrekDawg]

While you were researching, I was going far back in the thread to find the answer, finally found it around page 15 lol

Also what is this? I know, terrible pics

It's a catbird. Ours is back, we named him the happy catbird. He goes from tree to tree singing at the top of his lungs.

The caterpillars are starting to hatch. There have been tons of chickadees hanging on my apple and pear trees chowing down on them.

I pulled out my handy dandy bird id book and looked at the beak/perching bird profiles. The catbird jumped right out at me. LOL
