Birds and Flowers



This is the bird feeder that Mike built by gluing a cake plate onto a pole.

When the news bulletin went out that sunflower seeds were being served, two timid sparrows arrived.  We lured them with stale bread, then they hopped onto the feeder.  Happy with what they found, they did what good sparrows do--they shared the news with their friends and family.

Soon two sparrows multiplied into twenty.  A bright red cardinal spied the comings and goings and flew over to partake of the feast.

A hummingbird flitted about the fire cracker bush and crepe myrtles and blue plumbago.
