Many Cardinals Visit During Storm

Like our Robin that stays here for winters, how birds know where to get food in area s amazes me.

Nice to hear they are on the increase,Paul..I wish we had them over here ..

Aren't they amazing Sandra? I wish I can send you some, LOL. These guys are with me all year long; like my pets. I'm glad I can help them get through this horrid winter..

It's good you are doing your bit,to help them,Paul..they will be relying on you ,till they can find food for themselves again..

They've eaten through 40lbs of food in just two weeks. I always get them the premium grade food - with all the different seeds, nuts and dried fruits and the suet cakes. I enjoy watching them from the window. The storms however make it very difficult and dangerous for me to get around.

Wow a lot of food. You could always put their food close to your door out side would be safer for you, they would still go to it providing no one is to close thats what I do then I sit at the back door watching sitting very still.

Humm that's a good idea, I should try that. However, I meant it's dangerous to get around, to go out shopping for more seeds and supplies. The snow storms make it very dangerous to drive and the roads ice over quickly.

You could make your own fat balls, rasins, fat, oats and mix all together if you already have in the ingredients .

What kind of fat do you use?

Lard, cooking fat in the blocks.
