GARDEN BIRDS

A couple of weeks ago I bought a bird feeder and Mike fixed it up on the deck right outside our sitting room windows,

It has been one of the best things I have ever bought.

Here are just some of the birds who visit -

  1. Jean, what an amazing array of colorful birds - some I'd even forgotten because we don't have them here!
