This morning I heard
chick-a-dees
in the windbreak.
My bird feeders are
all out of feed.
So, Erin and I
gathered up our sunflowers.
Which are all ready
for the birds.
It was a lot of work.
For 3-year-old hands
to cut off sunflower heads.
But it was worth it.
For a nice fall bouquet
even if the chick-a-dees don't find it.
Little projects are fun
with my "Little E"
I was ready to cut down my "volunteer" sunflowers yesterday and start my fall yard clean-up when I noticed about 8 small brown birds flitting back and forth between the sunflowers and the protection of my hedge. It will be hard to cut them down now knowing that they are a "found" food source for those eager feathered feeders! BARB
ReplyDeleteErin sure is a cutie pie! I love having bird food out - we have a one legged green finch that loves to eat with us at his feeder.
