@gingerw, @johnbishop, @loribmt, and all... what a wonderful gaggle of feathered friends. I know you're enjoying this scene for as long as they hang out. One of my favorite little fellows is the quail. I adore the way they look, walk, everything about them. And what a conglomeration of goodies for your fun. Enjoy...
I have 5 mourning doves several times daily now, cardinal families are still not as prolific as normal, and don't know why...mybe some of their nesting in large shrubs has been disturbed by our condo's overactive grounds folks. Hope not.
I have Downy Woodpeckers, male and female, lots of something I've yet to identify-I'll get a picture to you folks for help. Lovely soft gray bellies, shades of brown and black stripes on back and tail feathers, beautiful deep rust heads. I'm looking in my books and online.
Also, finch, lime-colored fellow-finch? tanager?
You are all such experts, I'm still learning. As soon as I get them planted, I'll show you the new cordon steel half moon wall planters I got and am planting mostly with succulents, a bloomer, or 2. Looking forward to getting them hung and happy.
Hope all are doing well.
Be safe, be well, be blessed. elizabeth
I look forward to your pictures. Thank you for posting!
