And I think they like to be near the rushing water in the water garden fountain and the mulberry trees and the short grass where they can forage. I sure do enjoy them.threecolliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05811004278088768813noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15171402.post-23359589892047385892011-07-09T13:43:09.049-04:002011-07-09T13:43:09.049-04:00I agree with Dani - your yard is a bird lover'...I agree with Dani - your yard is a bird lover's dream!

I am going to go look up vireo calls now and see if I have ever heard them. We got a horrendous storm. Lightning hit right next to the barn. I was afraid to go to bed!threecolliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05811004278088768813noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15171402.post-76563510391763778402011-07-09T09:34:57.383-04:002011-07-09T09:34:57.383-04:00I'm surrounded by birds here at the Bolt Hole....I'm surrounded by birds here at the Bolt Hole. My resident Phoebe's, however, are not among them. I need to import a few more flycatching species. Lots for them to eat!<br /><br />Most annoying is the Vireo singing in the poplars across the road. Steadily (and loudly!) it calls, "Here I am. Where are you? Here I am. Where are you? Here I am. Where are you?..." All. Day. Long. And you can <i>never</i> find the dang bird in the upper branches of the trees.<br /><br />That gully washer passed just to the south of us. I could hear the thunder and see the very tops of the clouds. We got zip. Heard Dolgeville got hit pretty hard, though.joatedhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03415726428637484056noreply@blogger.com
