We have about a jillion cow birds you are welcome to. They are pigs, eat up most of the seed in the feeder. Only time we have an absence of birds is when a hawk comes cruising through down low. Everything disappears then. | |||

Just because something is legal to do doesn't mean it is the smart thing to do. |
dsiets: I tried the email in your profile but it seems to be defunct. Just wondering what part of MI you are at. Integrity is doing the right thing, even when nobody is looking. | |||

Just because you can, doesn't mean you should |
I haven't been feeding them for the last couple of years so don't have the smaller back yard crowd. We've also had less rain this winter and spring so that might also influence their migration. We have had a noticeable increase in Hawks, Owls and even some Eagles in recent years. ___________________________ Avoid buying ChiCom/CCP products whenever possible. | |||

I've kayaked in the Cosumnes River Preserve. You'll need to check on the websites for walking ability in the Graylodge and Sacramento refuges. Certainly you can ride a bike through, I've just never done it. Another great birding adventure is Audubon Canyon which is I think down near Bolinas in Marin County. Each year the egrets nest in the trees, and there are thousands. Check the Audubon website for timing and details. What part of Northern California do you live in? _________________________ “Remember, remember the fifth of November!" | |||

I was gonna say zombie apocalypse, it's always the birds that drop out first. Seriously though that sounds weird. When things like that overshadows you out of the blue, my mind wanders a little looking for a logical explanation, and it feels a little creepy when one doesn't come to mind. I've experienced weird stuff like that when I used to hunt in all kids of conditions in midday, before sunrise, after sunset etc., when all of a sudden in the blink of an eye something changes, and it's the twilight zone. I remember after a few years of very good dove shooting (hunting), a hurricane blew thru, and afterward the doves never came back. And they're still gone after I'm thinking over 25 years now. Wildlife across the board are smart creatures. They know their world in ways we will never comprehend. Lover of the US Constitution Wile E. Coyote School of DIY Disaster | |||

Carolina Wrens are like chickens scratching around for insects. I built these boxes for them with a removal clean out on the back: 41 | |||
