Pictures Gotcha!!

dts · 9/13/16

I have a myriad of birds in my backyard that I feed and really enjoy watching. Suddenly I noticed that my hummingbird feeder was emtying in an unusual manner :chin:

so I decided to keep an eye on it and voila there it was, a hooded oriole hanging from one of them. Needless to say now I have to prepare extra nectar for those unexpected visitors because guess what there's also a mom and cute little chick.

It must have been a nice surprise to see the oriole.

Yes. I was pleasantly surprised. I am giving them oranges from my backyard tree and they enjoy them. Lately I have been seeing new birds around, my guess is that this California drought and wildfires are taking a toll on wildlife. :sad1:

Extra work maybe but doesn't that make you SMILE? If not GRIN? I'm a wild bird feeder as well ...
