Birds, Birds, and More Birds

A beautiful Spring day!  Everything is so very green, and the songbirds are out if full force!  I set out my hummingbird feeders on Friday morning but have yet to see or hear any hummers at them. But that certainly doesn't mean they aren't here - I've seen several already, just not at MY feeders... 

This morning I saw a pair of Goldfinches in the ash trees, and hurried to set out the finch feeders. It sure didn't take them long - after less than ten minutes there were FIVE of them feasting on the thistle seed!  

House Finches, Waxwings, Yellow Warblers, House Wrens, and others I have yet to learn songs for, are abundant all around me, and I love it!  Nothing is better than to sit outside on a beautiful, quiet Spring morning, and listen to the birds!
