The miracle? The birds didn't pull a Hitchcock on me.
I debated wearing a helmet to run to the car.

It's Michael's weekend off (YAY!), so we ran errands. First stop, Tractor Supply for bird food (and garden stuff). Now there's no reason to leave the property until Monday morning. :)
Michael wanted a thistle feeder for the Goldfinches. I have never had luck with any thistle feeders. They went ignored.
So of course, the moment he hangs his hideous "sock feeder":
@#$% birds.
Hee, hee! That's the way it always goes. You're going to have to get a better thistle feeder than that, now, because those goldfinches will have that sock empty in nothing flat.
ReplyDeleteha ha ha!!! our goldfinches have long moved thru to your place, but our pine siskins have decided to live here year 'round now - thanks to our 2 niger feeders. never had them before last fall and now can't get 'rid' of them! :)
ReplyDeleteYou two realize that I'll buy a really great feeder and poof..they'll hate thistle again! LOL
ReplyDeleteOur Goldfinches totally ignore thistle/niger and head straight for the black oil. It's is so dang windy here this morning the birds have some kind of crazy flight pattern going on just to get to the feeders!
