BIRD NERD ANGIE

I thought my first blog post should be about something I'm passionate about, and it is, birdwatching. Rob and I have been birding for 4 years, attracting birds to our backyard and going on day trips to parks and conservation areas to enjoy the birds. Our hobby really is a labour of love. This past Sunday, we spent an enjoyable hour in the backyard with our feathered friends, both new and old.


I'm ready to feed the birds!



A pair of Northern Cardinals. We're lucky that these beautiful creatures are almost daily visitors, and were the first birds to ever visit our feeders.


A new visitor to the yard, a Pine Siskin.


A Blue Jay way up in the tree.


More Pine Siskins.


Ending the day by making a snow angel.

came here from Teena's blog. I live in UK and we only have a small concrete yard with pots but have began to get birds now. They are great to watch but not as exciting as the ones you get. i would love a proper garden
