no snakes!!

A brown

thrasher gleans food

from below the suet

feeder. I never see him in

the bush.

Mother's Day plant (s) along the back wall

ON MY BUCKET LIST?

Never,

ever looked in

a nest to see either

eggs or baby birds--I'm missing

a treat?

POPULAR DRINKING VENUE

A squirrel

at the bird bath --

all critters need water.

Why chase it off?? The suet cake's

nearby!

DRINKING, BUT NOT A BIRD

After

plugging up two

good-sized holes, I know why

the holes existed: there is a

chipmunk!
