Hanne, we used to have a feeder at this window. That's where we saw a mother cardinal teach her baby to eat sunflower seeds. At another time we had one at the other kitchen window. It had a roll top lid which offered some protection from the weather but a squirrel took to using it as a sleeping place. Now I don't try to feed at all because there are too many cats that like to visit my yard.
To watch the birds at the feeder, we have a house and some fatballs hanging down from the corners and a rather big "table" underneath for those that like eating on the ground, is SO much fun and very interesting. You see SO many sweet and funny episodes.
Thanks Ank. Glad to see you are home safely. I know it's been hard for you as well. Elly needs time to rest and grieve and heal. I'll keep her in my prayers.
Thanks, Hanne. They certainly make a very bright spot in the snow especially. At one time we had a platform type bird feeder on a kitchen window. We watched one day as a mother cardinal brought her baby there to teach it to eat seeds. It was a precious experience.
