Happy Valentines Day!
Nature seems to slowly wake up from its wintery slumber, and the birds are starting to sing more. I hope you have a great day, the best time of the year is not that far away!
These are strange times,
when bird migration is underway but you can’t see results yet, the weather is spring-like but also still full of frosty surprises, and we are kind of in an in-between. However, there is also a lot of love in the air! House Finches, like many other birds, strengthen their bond during mating season by feeding each other. It is adorable to watch. Come good into Friday!
There's still the occasional night frost,
which had me searching for solutions to get my veggie seeds going in the house, but spring is definitely here now. The fruit trees and bushes are starting to bud, the lawn is beginning to look greener again, and there are little displays of courtship and birb love all over the place. This House finch couple came last night for an intimate dinner. The female begs, and the male feeds her. Later on, the babies will beg from their parents to be fed just in the same way, it is very adorable to watch.
