Welcome to My Blog!
This blog is where I’ll share what I’m seeing in our yard, in the gardens, and around our small lake—anything related to birds and gardening. I’d love to hear from you as well! Whether you’re observing something interesting or have a bird-related question, feel free to reach out. I don’t follow a strict blogging schedule, but I typically post every 4 to 7 days—sometimes more often. Let’s enjoy learning about birds together.

Molting, Migration, Moving
You have probably noticed a decrease in the number of birds using our feeders and birdbaths over the past few weeks. And some birds have disappeared completely.
