The area behind my house is a protected nesting area for Red Winged Black Birds. As a result all birds live and thrive there. I have two humming bird feeders and several other seed feeders for my feathered friends. I mostly love watching them except the Grackles and Canadian Geese. The Grackles are just plain mean and won't let the smaller birds feed. The fricken geese are just everywhere in the winter. I live in a migratory fly lane for them to get to warmer/cooler weather as the seasons change. Can't even walk the dog out back as there is goose shit everywhere. Hunters get up at dawn, drive for hours and hide in a duck blind to get a shot at them...I can walk out back and hit one with a rock. Other than that I love watching my little feathered friends. Oh, bird seed is expensive and they never stop eating.
