Feed the Birds...



I bought this lovely window bird feeder last year as a little gift for our family of bird-lovers.  My dream was to have it hang on the dining room window so that we could enjoy our feathered friends while we ate (which is often in our little family!).  Unfortunately, the birds did not get the memo.  As far as I know, not one bird ever came to partake of the birdseed that filled the tray. 

This morning, Little Man and I watched a few birds flitting around the front of the house.  Inspiration struck!  What if I move the feeder from the back to the front and put it on the window that is behind our nature table?  We quickly moved it and filled it with fresh seed, and though it is too soon to tell if our plan will work, I am hopeful!

After all the squirrel attacks of several years ago, I got a squirrel proof birdfeeder and hung it from a decorative pole in the garden, across from the kitchen window. I have found that when I fill it after a period of it being empty, it takes the birds a while to discover it. I hope your birds take notice soon.

Have you seen the bird houses that attached to a window and are open on the window side? I have asked my father to make one for us. It would be amazing to watch that process up close! I'd probably never leave the window :)
