They do have certain times they come. Maybe one of these weekends you can take your tea outside and get to see your birds. <BR/>I sure enjoy seeeing all of your birds.

They still do not like sharing a feeder but will if they have to. I have lots of small trays set up so the Cardinals can feed comfortably near each other. They all come every evening after the sparrows leave for the night. <BR/>Looking forward to visiting your journal.<BR/>SherryQhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02473455565144414399noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27765182.post-88331069077650164312007-11-19T18:27:00.000-06:002007-11-19T18:27:00.000-06:00Dear Mon@rch,I already miss the butterflies!It doe...Dear Mon@rch,<BR/>I already miss the butterflies!<BR/>It doesn't take too long before the birds build a relationship with me. They come knocking when they need water or fresh seed. I do some photos through the glass in the winter but mostly I like to be outside with them.<BR/>We will see who comes this year and how much they trust me.<BR/>SherryQhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02473455565144414399noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27765182.post-43630342940001700962007-11-19T18:24:00.000-06:002007-11-19T18:24:00.000-06:00Dear Mary,It is so easy to do!

Add about 50 pounds of mixed bird seed and a camera. Presto, birds and photos! You do so very well stalking your birds! I think I need lessons.

I always think it is beautiful! The birds really come to the feeders during a snowfall too. I will be figuring out my indoor bird watching chairs soon.<BR/>I would like the snow to wait until December around here. I still have way too much to do before snow.<BR/>SherryQhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02473455565144414399noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27765182.post-39431999435885068122007-11-19T13:23:00.000-06:002007-11-19T13:23:00.000-06:00We look to our garden birds to be our "weather for...We look to our garden birds to be our "weather forecasters" too :-} they are always more acurate than the weatherman :-} I am sure snow is on it's way.

The Cardinals do bring much delight! I counted 10 this evening so the numbers are increasing each day. Last winter we would have 20-30 at sunset. We called it, "Cardinal time". My husband and would sit in the living room and watch all the Cardinals come to the deck. So beautiful!
