A reference site for the backyard or well-traveled birder on attracting, feeding and recognizing common and popular birds. Dispels myths about birds, bird feeding and housing birds. A site that is kid-friendly and hopefully educational while being slightly irreverent and humorous. Includes bird nest updates and pictures.

Oops! They're here!
Perhaps I wasn't listening carefully or early enough, but the White-Throated Sparrows are indeed here. It's 8:46 and I have opened the kitchen window and hear what sounds like several of the little guys singing at the edge of the woods. I was hoping to seduce them into coming closer by sprinkling seeds, crumbs and other goodies below the deck, but I think they are still a little tentative. I can imagine they are enjoying the mess of my decrepit garden and all of the dying wildflowers out there. Still no Juncos on the feeders, but that just may be a lack of observation on my part! Now it feels officially like fall. I just wonder what they think of these warm temperatures?
