For the Birds

We are getting ready for the Great Backyard Bird count and decided to make some snacks for the birds. Within the last week I have seen bluebirds, junkos, cardinals, robins, chickadees, and some other pretty birds. We saw these orange bird feeders in my mom and dad's Birds 'n Blooms magazine and thought we'd try it. We were almost out of birdfood, so it was pretty simple. I hope the birds like it. We just put in peanut butter, birdseed mix, and raisins. Our tabby kitty TigerGirl is running quickly on the porch because her paws are cold. At the end of the post are long belated Christmas pics :)

What a cute idea for a birdy treat. Didn't know if was in that magazine.

Loved the pictures of the kids. Looks as if they had a wonderful time.

Mom, that's where I got the idea...dad and I were looking through some of those magazines at Christams...don't think it was a current one, though...

we did have a really nice christmas, even though it took several weeks to get it all done

Did I notice a familiar sweater in the last picture? Didn't know it was still around.
