The Thistle Seeds are FINALLY Disappearing!

Remember I mentioned mixing the thistle seed feeder contents with the other feeder since no birds were eating the thistle seed?  Well, I'm glad I procrastinated because today it has been hit hard!  By the end of the day, it was down quite a bit more!

AND, here's what I found at the feeder today!  I was so excited to see them!

Female American Goldfinch

I see you!

You can look at me as long as you let me eat!

Tufted Titmouse breaking open something from the feeder.  It might be a peanut, but I cannot tell.

It's open! (Have I mentioned that I LOVE the zoom on my camera?!  :D )

YUMMY!

There was so much activity happening around the feeders today that I wanted to stay outside and watch them.  However, I had LOTS to do inside!  We began the morning by having a Spring Cleaning day at church.  That lasted from 9-1.  When I got back home, I started my usual Saturday routine of cleaning and laundry.  Plus I had stuff from the church nursery to clean, linens and toys.

I also had to divide up the candy for Easter.  I will be giving Hannah, Ryan and Abby theirs tomorrow when they are here for Abby's birthday.

All bagged up!  I got the little kids a toy and got the bigger kids candy.

Two morning doves came today.

It was a BEAUTIFUL day today, even if on the cool side.


Puzzle for today:  Bahama Lighthouse

Well, I need to hang up the last load of clothes and then hit the hay.  I have to get up early to get lunch started!  Have a blessed Lord's Day!
