Flying piglets










Brrrr, -8 degrees this morning but at least it's sunny. I feel so sorry for my little birds when it's this cold. They enjoy the morning sun too as they sit all fluffed up in the sun. I usually fill the feeding log around 4 PM so they will have about an hour for one final fill-up of high protein before night. All the little flying piglets have usually licked it clean by noon the next day. And of course there's the other three seed feeders that are kept filled for them too. The cardinal seems to only be around for the morning feeding. He and the mourning doves are about the only ones who don't attack the feeding log. The first photo shows 2 bluebirds and a nuthatch on the log and a bluebird on the railing. The second photo is a bluebird and a dark-eyed juno on the railing. It's hard to get good photos from inside. If you click on the photo it'll show a larger picture.
