Birdfeeding

[ysabetwordsmith]

Today is sunny and mild.

I fed the birds. I've seen a fox squirrel and a starling. I heard something that sounded like an owl (who-who-what?) but not one I recognized. EDIT 2/20/23: This is probably a collared dove.

I put out water for the birds.

I took a few pictures of the spring flowers.

I started cutting brush around the birdgift tree.

EDIT 2/20/23 -- I cut more brush around the birdgift tree.

A few of the honeysuckles are starting to leaf out.

My mourning doves make bizarre panicky sounds when flushed.

The mourning dove panic is lovely in comparison.

There has to be something in their pitch that scrapes my nerves.

Jays and starlings screaming all morning = "so loud today!"

Single collared dove kazoo = "uuuugggghhhhh!!!"
