Happy #Wrensday! A very sturdy walkway for the House Wren.

The new feeder (as of 2 weeks ago). Taken through a freshly-washed window. 🙂

You can tell the wind was really blowing.

The humble house sparrow is still one of my favourite birds. This family either moved in recently, or they didn't like the food I put up all winter, because it would sit there until it got moldy. Now I have to refill the feeders every day (There's also jackdaws raiding them, lol)

Northern Flicker Update. The excavating seems to be all done. The egg-laying phase is probably happening now.

Egg-laying: up to 7 days
Incubation: 11-12 days
Nestling period: 25-28 days
That's a lot of work!

I'm trying not to bother the birds, but they picked a high-traffic location. High traffic for the boondocks: 12-15 vehicles pass by per day, and I'm usually out an about doing things.

The rare Humungous Black and Orange Hummingbird!

A handsome couple. I think I have 3 Purple Martin pairs using the nesting gourds (50% occupancy).
