Good morning!

A cute new visitor has shown up in the garden, and I spotted it on the livestream just now. A tiny adorable baby bunny! I have been a little slow with photos lately, and I am sorry about that. The yard is still comparatively quiet because most birds are nesting right now, and we have been busy getting our veggie beds and the garden in shape. I have seen some hummingbirds around too, and I hope they will become more frequent and stop being so camera shy. The ghostly noises you hear on the livestream are the Starling babies. They have started to hang around yesterday and are basically heralding the arrival of the bird babies. I am also on the lookout for the Bluebird gang. So good things and more photos are coming soon, hopefully. In about two weeks, I will also make the first donation to Feeding America. I hope everyone has a splendid Monday!

Feeder activity is down

as you might have noticed too, and that is because everybody is busy building nests or taking care of offspring. The birds do make quick trips to grab beaks full of goodies for the babies. Grackles are especially talented when it comes to taking large quantities :D While it is always odd to have less activity after the spring migration rush, it frees up time, at least for me. I have used it to get my veggie garden in shape, and things are looking very good this year.
