Birds and Bugs

Spring has sprung and so have the birds and bugs. If you take a moment to
watch what is going on in your yard, you might just be amazed!
This year, I wanted to attract yellow finches, so that meant I had to provide
them with their favorite food, thistle. So much for thinking I could fill the feeder weekly -
I am filling it daily!!! Honestly, I am going to have the chubbiest birds in the neighborhood this summer!
Here are some creatures that have chosen my yard this spring.
