We have chipmunks as a rule, but this year there are so many cats wandering the neighborhood, snacking that I haven't seen many.<br />We have blue jays, nuthatches, robins, doves, finches (gold and purple), juncos, sparrows, blackbirds of every sort, thrashers, and the very occasional woodpecker. Oh and a pair of cardinals, too. The doves made a nest on top of our garage door opener one year. That was inconvenient, to say the least.

We don't have chipmunks here in England (unless you count Chip 'n' Dale in a cartoon) - sooo cute! And I THINK I spotted a House Sparrow in one of your pics!<br /><br />We feed the birds in our garden - Jasper has a good recipe for a make-at-home bird seedcake if you want it!<br /><br />Hope all is well with you and your hunky FH - and especially our bear friends. xxxRuthnJasperhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10854229975104169793noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6259236583324720329.post-8720253485151244042011-05-07T01:02:20.830-05:002011-05-07T01:02:20.830-05:00I see green grass and fat chipmunks!

I didn't realize that fishing line on the feeders would prevent the squirrels from getting to the food.

I think Mrs. Robin looks positively regal with her red breast!<br /> I agree with you on your reaction to the partying over the death of osama even though he was hated, he should have had a trial. Now we have ticked the enemy off as well as stooping to their level.<br />Somehow I missed the reason why you call that lamp lid Waldo. ??Lynnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09826731771375350000noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6259236583324720329.post-59744059983412728132011-05-06T20:02:43.521-05:002011-05-06T20:02:43.521-05:00those darn squirrels!
