The goldfinches are
at my feeders now.
Counted 15 a few days ago.
I feed birds year round and it gives me great pleasure, Keeping fresh water availsble is as important as food,
I plant red flowers like petunias, salvia, geraniums in pots on my patio as hummers are attracted to the red colors. They usually continue blooming until cold Autumn temps arrive.
UPDATE: saw my 1st hummer today..Apr 30..
not sure if they've been here and I've just missed
them or if they were late arriving due to cold weather here. Ruby throated hummers are what come here in April and stay till cold weather comes again.
UPDATE; MAY 2: Baltimole Orioles have arrived
and are feeding on the grape jelly I put out for thm,. Am also offering a bannna after I saw this picture.
UPDATE: I now have a pair of these beauties at my feeders in May...Rose Breasted Grosbeaks.
There are a few lilac blooms on my back yard bush.
And on my neighbor's.
And the tulips did well this year and grew very tall.
The Ferns and Hostas are up around the base of the Sycamore tree and the bird bath is ready for all takers.
I'll plant more columbine this year as some didnt survive the winter and the hummingbirds love them.
Wishing you a lovely, happy Spring!
