Not much time for a lengthly post today - just thought I would show a couple of pics taken from inside the house with the window closed and through the screen. Not great pics, but I had my coffee in my hand and was rushing late for a doctor's appointment......
I just HAD to share my little yellow meatballs who really eat us out of house and home!!!
Those cute spoiled little guys will actually YELL at us if the feeders get empty. My hubs thinks it is absolutely hilarious.
I teased him yesterday after it happened and told him he was just getting nagged at.........and asked him what he sassed back to the bird(s) and he just said he told them "Yes, dears" and filled up all the feeders. Haha!! Cracks me UP!
Hmmm.. do our finches really "rest"??!!
Perhaps not, but they sure do WOW us!

gotta love them! I try to feed the birds in my yard but the squirrels beat them to it and eat till it's all gone.
ReplyDeleteHi Michele,
ReplyDeleteOh, these are great pictures! :o) Goldfinches are such a dazzling shade of yellow; I love them. Here in North Carolina, their nickname is "Carolina Parakeets." My in-laws get lots of them. What we're getting at our Safflower Seed feeder is BUNCHES of purple finches. I know what you mean about them eating you out of house and home. I'm wondering how we'll continue to afford this. It's just such a treat to watch them all.
I hope you're feeling better these days. I remember you had been sick around Easter because you posted that your daughters served Easter lunch.
Thanks for sharing the pictures and have a great day!
Denise
They sure are colorful birds, aren't they?
ReplyDeleteTHESE PICTURES ARE GREAT.......WE HAVE A RABBIT WHO LIVES UNDER OUR SHED....I'M SURE SHE HAS BABIES....THE GRANDKIDS LEAVE FOOD AND WATER FOR HER.......THERE ARE SQUIRRELS ALL OVER THE PLACE.....WE LEAVE FOOD FOR THEM TOO.......I LOVE ALL THE ANIMALS THAT PAY US A VISIT....THERE ARE SO MANY BEAUTIFUL BIRDS.....HAVE A GOOD WEEK......RIZZI
ReplyDeleteOh wow! What great photos!
ReplyDeleteToo cute! I love having little friends that visit and talk to you! (or yell I guess)

I'd love to hear what that scolding sounds like! We used to feed our finches, but we attracted ants. And then the day came when one of our cats caught one, and it broke my heart! Love little goldies and their song.
ReplyDeleteHow funny, Michele! Bossy little things, are they? Your hubby has the right frame of mind; just "yes" them!
ReplyDeleteA great bird presentation.
ReplyDeleteMichele, you know I also love the gold finch and and have three upside down finch feeders. Only the gold finch and eat from it, guess I am selfish, because I really just want to see the gold ones out my kitchen window.
ReplyDeleteHi Michele, I love those cute birds. Sounds like you've trained hubby well, yes dear. lol!
ReplyDeleteHugs,
Jann
That's the funny part, Jann- he doesn't say that to me at ALL!!! No training, he's his own man to be sure, haha.
DeleteLove the pictures!!

val
don't you just love that they "found" you:)
ReplyDeleteHow sweet! We do not have your colorful finches, but we do have a very persistent squirrel who will glare at us if the tray is empty!
ReplyDeleteWe do so love watching the birds at the feeder. It brings much pleasure.
Good luck at your doctors visit : )
Hugs,
Terri
Didn't know you could see these birds in the wild. How lucky you are. Love the poem, too. xo Jenny
ReplyDeleteThose yellow birds are pistols for sure....wanting their food and water. Those meatballs are lucky to have you taking care of them. I betcha they know it too.
ReplyDeleteJoyce M
