Non-Existent Birds
Yeah, another day of zipoid. I promise that the feeder was crawling with orioles just a few minutes ago. What is it with these birds? We've got a NordicTrack exercise machine that looks out the sliders onto the back yard, and we can use that and the birds seem happy as can be. Even the crows go "ho hum"... But break out a camera and they are all "feathers non grata". What are these birds??? Hollywood stars?
Onward...
Anyway, here's yet another study that indicates that crows and their cousins are pretty darned crafty. Like I was saying...
Onward yet again... Wish more of those non-existent birds would show up. Remember when we got a visit from a rose-breasted grosbeak? And then there was the hummingbird video...
Ahhh... There are good birding times, and not so good birding times. Guess that's just a model for life. Sometimes you win and sometimes you lose. But the sun will come up tomorrow. Let's just hope that the birds show up too.
See you by the feeders,
