Red-Headed Woodpecker

What's this I see? The top of mom and dad's light pole appears to be very popular with the woodpeckers, it's not the first time they have made a nest, and a raised a family there.

Let's see if we can sneak a little closer. . .

Rainy Day

Everybody needs a little help sometime.  Although, why the female house finch needs the male to bring her food, when she built her nest in a bird feeder, beats me.  Day 5 and she has laid 4 eggs so far.

This just in!

I have a bird feeder outside my bedroom window and I love watching the birds. Lately, it's been mostly house finch. The amazing thing. . .

One little female has decided this would be a good nest, lol. I'm really enjoying watching her bring her sticks and wiggle the seed into a bowl and chase off other birds. We'll see what happens. . .

UPDATE: 12:42 pm - She isn't the brightest, it seems for every 2 sticks she brings at least one falls out.  And the fellow keeps bringing things, and dropping them.  He sits atop the feeder often , I guess guarding her?
