My bird story.
This guy comes and visits quite often.
He lands on my hummingbird feeder and I guess he must get something from it.
He is an oriole that identifies as a hummingbird.
He is beautiful.
I saw a female mockingbird identify as a finch so she could graze among them and get away from two juvenile male mockingbirds who wouldn’t leave her alone.
I put out an oriole feeder last summer for the first time. There’s not much difference between a hummy feeder and an oriole feeder. I think, IIRC, the oriole mix is a little less sugar than the hummingbird mix, but they’re basically the same thing. The oriole feeder also has stations for fresh cut orange pieces and some grape jelly.
I also see hummingbirds at the oriole feeder, so it goes both ways lol.
Judy I remember a few years ago I came across something you’d like possibly.
It was at a garage sale - a garbage bag filled with skeins and partial skiens of yarn. There were some 4 Or five in same color. And the colors were gorgeous. I don’t knit and couldn’t think of anyone I knew who knit. It was like $5. I’ve thought about that treasure often.
It was 2,daughters selling off deceased mom’s stuff
Well Jem?!?!?
Short and sweet! What’s going on in youn world?
I have woodpeckers a male and female who show daily for peanuts. I call the male Pectacular because he is! The female is known as Mrs. P. Lots of doves too as well as a pair of cardinals...aka Red and Clownface.
Birds are fascinating. I was a biology major but never took one ornithology course. I had two emphasis foci - botany and entomology.
Most of my adult years I’ve regretted no bird studies.
I well used both foci but wish I had picked up 2-3 elective classes in ornithology
How did the woodpecker “relationship start?
I think they’re beautiful birds
Today the Bee should be posting true stories
Think about it
I for one am not reading or posting current news today.
So many years I did and next day

April Fool
I didn’t think funny.
I’m happier posting about birds, culinary, landscaping, fashion, cats& dogs, weather, earthquakes …
Ya know “ the Important stuff”
A lot of interesting things occurred to me today in the course the day
Well maybe just interesting to me😊
One perplexing/interesting. Sheriff deputy just left. Showed up because 911 call came from my sons cell. He was sleeping. Phone on table. 4th time in 6 days.
Maybe his phone is also possessed. Tomorrow AM I’ll check out his phone. We’ll probably go to Verizon
Has anyone here ever had that situation/?difficulty?
I’ll check his registry for calls made/outgoing. Can someone remotely do this?
up to 111 and I have about 80 to read to catch up.
Well no one is here and I have three phone texting with me. One from Mich n two from Ohio so I’ll say good night for now
Sweet dreams
“Has anyone here ever had that situation/?difficulty?
“... Can someone remotely do this?”
I am not sure, but weird things happen when my sister (also a FReeper) and I are talking on our cells. Periods of 2-3 seconds of dead air at both ends, but no disconnection. Just started happening about a month ago. We’re both with Verizon.
“election day November where Trump gets an avalanche of votes surpassing all polls and expectations and some will even surprise themselves with their votes.
