It seems late, but maybe it isn't. I still have some RT hummers, so I will leave the feeders up....Oh and I saw the long billed chickadee today. He or she was eating some sunflower chips. Maybe it can survive with my help...Rambling Woodshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15080120317890707767noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29934747.post-58169798748461743702008-09-12T00:19:00.000-03:002008-09-12T00:19:00.000-03:00A beautiful garden and wonderful birds!

While it fed briefly on Hosta blooms I hurried to make some food for it and re established their feeders. Hope it comes back.<BR/><BR/>mike:<BR/>The seasonal change is always exciting I think. The Goldfinch will probably stay but the Chipping Sparrows will be replaced by Tree Sparrows arriving from the north. Sometimes a Song Sparrow will overwinter. And at this time of year we often have migrants stopping over for a few days while passing through.<BR/><BR/>deborah:<BR/>I love Redstarts and this one seems to be so Octoberish/ Halloweenish. Last night was our first real cold night and the thermometer outside the window this morning read +1C so I would not be surprised that it had dipped down to zero. A frost warning again for us for tonight.

I quit for a while this summer, but now the air has turned. No frost yet, at least. Anyway, great shots, especially that patchy little redstart.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29934747.post-55102002240302223822008-09-11T08:37:00.000-03:002008-09-11T08:37:00.000-03:00Wonderful bird shots can't wait till the wintering...Wonderful bird shots can't wait till the wintering birds start coming to my garden again, Mike.Mikehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13385710094192499956noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29934747.post-73809229980898509492008-09-11T08:18:00.000-03:002008-09-11T08:18:00.000-03:00How fortunate you are to see such a variety of bir...How fortunate you are to see such a variety of birds from indoors while having tea! The grackles have been gone from our area for a while as have the red-winged blackbirds and kingbirds. I have seen a few groups of warblers on my walks. I particularly like your picture of the vireo.Ruthhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15892804871759397018noreply@blogger.com
