Squirrel’s love it!
Squirrels’ weight causes the feeder to rotate. It swings and spins..as the hungry acrobats grab a bite to eat. Attach an ear of corn, fruit, or peanut butter and watch the fun begin!

LEARN HOW LANDSCAPING CAN WORK TO ATTRACT MORE BIRDS

For a formal look in your yard, put your bird feeder right in the center of your yard. One effective way to display it prominently is to have paths radiating outward from it, with low-growing herbs or perennials planted between the paths. This style is reminiscent of formal European gardens that focus on geometric shapes, straight borders, paths and decorative elements such as fountains, sundials or statuary. Placing your feeder like this gives the landscape a sense of order and grandeur.

Photographs and Memories

At this time of the year, when I look outside my window, all I see is darkness.  Winter Time.  As the days move forward, we are now gaining more daylight and that is something to look forward to.  More light. 
The view from my window, are balconies of the next low-rise apartment complex.  From the distance, I can see the Rogers Twin Tower at Metro Town.  A third high-rise building is slowly rising.  I can see the construction crane.  
For most time, when I look outside, I look below.  Right in front of me is a Holly Tree. 
The Holly tree was a giant wiry mess then.  The owner wanted to cut it down.  I beg to the Manager not to cut it down for there are so many birds and animals that take refuge on this tree.  Thank goodness, the tree was spared.  The bottom part was…

Where do birds sleep?

I am a bird lover and almost every day I take pictures of birds in my backyard. Some are migrating birds and some (many) others are local for my area. Today around 5:30 pm, I saw a downy woodpecker getting inside of a birdhouse, so I started searching online where they sleep. And I found out that they normally have roost holes in trees, where they spend the night. For my surprise, this woodpecker liked our birdhouse. This bird house was the nest for Chickadee family of 4 babies last spring (2012). Hereby is the picture that I took of him and some very interesting sites about where birds like to spend the night.
