Time for a new volume.
We came from here: http://davesgarden.com/community/forums/t/946375/
At the end of volume 11, we saw cute dipped pine cones, screen/mesh Nyjer feeders and a wishing well converted to bird feeder.
Here is an oldie but goodie. My cat watching the downy woodpecker on the platform feeder with suet cage.
Nice pic! Your cat is so cute.
Thanks for starting the new thread!
I love my platform feeder and so do the cardinals and woodpeckers. My kitty loves to watch birdie TV, too
Mrs Ed,
Adorable picture of the cat. *S* And gadzooks you have a lot of finches, I'm getting a few but nothing like the ones feasting at your house.
dellrose,
About your mockingbird photo, http://davesgarden.com/community/forums/fp.php?pid=6196986
I thought it was fabulous, I love how he has buried his head into the cone trying to get a nibble.
It's better than a standard bird shot, very interesting. (imho)

Well it is slightly warmer this morning than yesterday. I must go out and fill the feeders . It is almost daylight, and 19 degrees. Snow didn't melt much yesterday, only got to 32 degrees.
Donna
That is a really cute one Mrs. Ed...your cat is beautiful!
Thank you Dove...I appreciate your comment.
It is snowing this morning so I have been trying to get a few window shots. Here is a new cheapo feeder I got yesterday...the Goldfinches love it of course. I don't think they have ever met a feeder they didn't love!! Those two on the right crack me up and so typical of their behavior!
We started a new hummingbird feeder thread:

lesser goldfinches love their nyjer!! sometimes I'll even see housefinches eating from the tray
Not the best picture in the world but here are some little ones waiting their turn to get to my sock feeder. I counted as many as over 20 trying to get to the little sock feeder and another finch feeder.
mama cardinal with a bad hair day!
bsharf: So cute! I know how she feels lol
Nice pics guys!
some of my bird houses--sublet
another
as you can see all my feeders are occupied
they do look comfy
nary a bird has room to get in any of my bird houses
guess they are good for my garden
will a perch count?
this one is too adorable to leave out
be sure to note my wind chimes in next photo
Oh how cute! He looks like he is smiling. Nice feeders!
Your certainly have plenty of happy frogs!
Your frogs are so cute!!! What kind are they?
thanks pelle--I know they are not birds, but can we stretch it and say they bird watch?
clueless as to type
have several kinds
one not pictured is a florida leopard
prolific comes to mind
oh my. they are so funny.
mrs--they definitely make me smile
apologize for taking up posting space since these really don't fit here
wanted to share them just because they inhabit my garden
lets see--if a bird eats them , well maybe they could be 'bird feeders'
i liked them!!!
Well, while we're a little off topic… turns out, squirrels like grapes.
I was trying to entice some woodpeckers and any robins that might show up.
gardn_ Great pictures, I love frogs, mine are still under ground. I especially loved your photo of the frogs and chimes.
Donna
I love those frogs...at first I thought they were ceramic! I can't wait for our tree frogs to start hanging on the windows!
That is a super shot Mrs. Ed...I feel deprived not having any squirrels!
Oh I was afraid squirrels liked grapes. I was thinking of putting cut up ones in my Oriole feeder. Never mind that.
Well I coulda told you that Mrs. Ed! They became regualrs at the Oriole Buffet last year grabbing some grapes. I spent a fortune grapes believe me. The following all ate them
Oriole
Cardinal
Jay - loved them!!
Catbird
Red-bellied
Squirrels
Chipmunks
Raccoons - this one got the left overs at the end of the day
LOL...Nanny!
The Mockingbirds love the grapes also!
LOL Nanny! So glad I don't have the raccoon problem. just possums.
Rose I could send you some squirrels. I have too many. And, just saw some squirrel um… mating… going on!
She wanted nothing to do with him though.
I'll take them Mrs. Ed...I noticed several on the road yesterday..so spring is fast approaching.
One of our signs of spring is when we start seeing those black kitties with the big white stripe down the back... we have seen a couple out and about....
Ha. why don't you go up and try to pet one, Nanny.
You are bad....missy
I need my fingers thank you!

Thank goodness we don't have any black kitties here in our suburbs.....but tons of squirrels. They are a nuisance at times and dig everywhere. I do feed them peanuts in the winter though because they get hungry too. In the spring, when I am digging in my flower beds, I find pecans everywhere that they have buried. I can almost get enough to make a pecan pie LOL
You guys are a hoot!
You guys crack me up! LOL!
The smaller birds love this feeder and the dome keeps the bigger birds from eating all the good stuff. Here are American Goldfinch and on the left is a Pine Siskin. I have also seen Purple Finches, Wrens, Tufted Titmice and Bluebirds using it...
Great picture dellrose.
