The tiny birds, like the Chickadees, always worry me in high winds and extreme cold. But they're hardy little birds. Like you, there's always plenty of food that I serve and a nice variety. Nice bird photos! I love photographing the red-bellied woodpecker. I think I saw the red belly only once!Maryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02040099513110890878noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7017368239341866440.post-10013678779180143872008-02-22T06:11:00.000-05:002008-02-22T06:11:00.000-05:00Two of my favorites!
