They will be here soon! RBG

Debbie, I think Frank had been busy being away on a trip, but hopefully he'll see this now.

Silly me, but I have always liked this shot because it gives a wider angle peek into your "bird sanctuary" backyard. :biggrin:

 

Bump for Flewyyyyyyyyyyy

Nice shot Debbie

 

The good thing about these bells is that instead of ding they chip!

 

They look nice Debbie. We have them here also but I could never hang them as they would last maybe one night unless I took them in as I am doing with my feeder now. Raccoons and black bears will be trouble for feeders left out here. I stopped buying feeders and just use my empty coffey cans to make a tough metal feeder. They may empty it but it stays intack.:biggrin:

We had one in our yard for a few days last year, what good looking birds

 

Not away on a trip Miko, just busy with the Cafe weekend get together, then with work (ugh!! :frown .

Thanks for the help on this Debbie. I just responded to your PM on the meal worms. I really want to get the Rose-breasted Grosbeaks back this year, and I wouldn't mind getting a few more of the exotic species that you have managed to attract in your back yard. :smile:

Thanks again.

 

Very nice.

 

Thank you Debbie but I have been down that road a long time ago and I can assure you you cannot stop a bear once he/she gets the smell of bird seed. They love it. One night I watched a good size bear in my yard from my kitchen window with the porch light on and it was trying to figure out how to get to this feeder set the way you said. It did not take long as it just climbed one tree and took a big swipe at the rope holding the feeder up and down it all came and the bear right behind it. Here in N.Y it is illeagle to feed bears and this is considered feeding them so the DEC states if you don't feed them they won't come. They even give you a nice sign to place on the front of your house if you are a good neighbear. I also watched one in front of my garage try to undo the rope that went up to a pulley in a tree for a feeder. The rope was hooked on my garrage This one I hollowed at and it ran but I had to take the feeder in or loose it. Also about the PVC pipe, NG the raccoons I posted a while ago just went up it like it was wood. Bears overpower and raccoons outsmart you. I love it :biggrin: :biggrin:
