Turkey Trespassers
We had a nice group of turkey hens traipse through our yard. James, our ever faithful foster dog, alerted Glen to the dangers 🙂
Eluding me no more
This is the red bellied woodpecker that has been eluding me. I was finally able to sneak up and get a few pictures before it flew off. It really has been enjoying the suet we put out. Good fuel on a very cold day.
New Bird Feeder
Glen and I bought a new bird feeder not too long ago. We can put both seed and suet in it, which is kind of handy. We haven’t had a lot of bird traffic yet. Yesterday our cat Lilly alerted me to a gorgeous little downy woodpecker. I got the camera, got it focused perfectly….
And it flew off the second before I took the picture. My next attempt was not much better. It’s like the birds are taunting me.
You can’t tell from the picture, but it was a female cardinal. She has a nice tail 
Looks like Dinner
Sadie checking to see how big Lila is to see if she will fit in the roasting pan.
In all honesty, we have to watch Sadie like a hawk to make sure she doesn’t actually harm the birds when they are out of their cage. We also must make sure that Lila doesn’t maim the cat because she is just that vicious.
I like birds
This weekend was the first time I had gotten Eva, our cockatoo, out of her cage since we took in Sadie. Sadie was extremely interested in Eva. Interested as in wondering if cockatoo was tasty.
