American Goldfinches are visiting in huge flocks. I count about 30 birds on this feeder. How many do you see? I put Sunflower Chips on this tray and they polish it off in no time!
The Northern Flickers love this suet feeder.
I usually take my hummingbird feeders down in the summer because the hummingbirds love all my flowers and the feeders are high maintenance. I just put them up last week and they are feeding from them a little bit. I still have many flowers blooming which they prefer.
Lots of birds drink from this recirculating pump in our pond. This Black-capped Chickadee likes perching on the frog's head.
On Monday, Red-tailed Hawks were circling over my garden. The weather was lovely and they seemed to enjoy riding the currents.
What is autumn bringing to your garden?
i love your photos! they are gorgeous. the flicker is very interesting, and you caught the "red" tail hawks very well.
ReplyDeleteas for visitors...little brown jobbies. i have a hard time identifying them. my dad is always saying, "look it up in your Peterson's guide!"
Awesome photos; what a lovely garden you have! I esp love the chickadee on the frog!
ReplyDeletealways enjoy spending a few moments relaxing vicariously in your garden through your blog....thanks for posting scott
ReplyDelete...the chickadee sipping from the fountain is so cute!! My hummers love the Black and Blue salvia too. Every year a buy a bit more and keep it on the deck, then plant it in the yard in fall and it comes back the next year. Besides the Lucifer crocosmia, it's their favorite nectar source!!
ReplyDeleteAll the shots look awesome. Especially the 5th one. Nicely done
