What a wonderful system you have there...Hi, Kerri. What a wonderful system you have there for birdfeeding! We had to remove all our birdfeeders from the back porch last winter because one morning we awoke to find two very large RATS scooping up all the spilled feed. The rats hung around for a while, too, trying to find a way into our house. Yikes! So we haven't had feeders for a while, but the funny thing is the birds seem to remember where our feeders were located and we still get a lot of bird visitors. I'm also surprised that you don't have a problem with all the cats, but perhaps they're too busy going after the mice in the barn. :) In any event, I really enjoyed your photos.

But I can not make photos from the birds, because the cats are allways behind me.<BR/>I use the same camera than you, Kerri.<BR/><BR/>SigrunSigruns German Gardenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17443421119980326977noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20997403.post-1143695775834659662006-03-30T00:16:00.000-05:002006-03-30T00:16:00.000-05:00Good thing you don't have cats.

At least it shows you their gratitude for feeding them by posing for you.<BR/>We don't have those kind of birds here. They're pretty. Except for the sparrow, it looks very like our local birds here.

Haha - good thing the cats get well fed by you, or the birdies might be in some trouble. Lovely photos, and lovely to see the creatures in your part of the world.Shellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09534045978468595511noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20997403.post-1143675355042951402006-03-29T18:35:00.000-05:002006-03-29T18:35:00.000-05:00Well it seems that you are taking very good pictur...Well it seems that you are taking very good pictures with your canon sure shot. I would love to be able to snap pictures of woodpeckers like you have...those are great shots of birds. <BR/><BR/>And like Alice said, the scenery is great and just makes us want to see more...we all seem to have sticky-beaks.Sandy Hatcher-Wallacehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15011307599473627922noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20997403.post-1143668676245262962006-03-29T16:44:00.000-05:002006-03-29T16:44:00.000-05:00Kerri, your photos are stunning.

We have put out so much food this winter but the grackles, starlings, and other parasite birds keep eating all the food. They just about suck it down.<BR/><BR/>This last round of bad weather I put an aluminum tray full of food out on my deck and we are getting quite a few to come eat at that. <BR/><BR/>I just absolutely love your pictures. Can't wait for more.Motherkittyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05112722238053618079noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20997403.post-1143666082159006292006-03-29T16:01:00.000-05:002006-03-29T16:01:00.000-05:00Kerri - the birds are pretty and different from ou...Kerri - the birds are pretty and different from ours, except the sparrow. But what interested me most in your photos was the scenery.<BR/><BR/>Please, can you get up on the roof and take some more shots?...lol. No, don't do anything that dangerous, just an upstairs window will do.<BR/><BR/>Being the sticky-beak that I am, I'm anxious to see what you can see in your everyday life - your larger garden, ie. your views.Alicehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10901064145483995261noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20997403.post-1143653620863735442006-03-29T12:33:00.000-05:002006-03-29T12:33:00.000-05:00Oh Kerri, what lovely photos!

I would love to take photos like these. You have a talent! <BR/><BR/>By the sound of it, you are warming up more quickly than us. *goes off the check how to do the degree thing*Valhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04743788129921238096noreply@blogger.com
