bluebird dad & baby.wmv

Posted by admin Filed Under Bird House Feeder with No Comments

The father bluebird comes to get worms to feed to the 3 babies. A wren tries to squeeze into the action, but a juvenile bluebird rushes to the feeder, followed by the father again. The dad just can’t act fast enough for this kid who’s screaming to be fed! As if, “ALRIGHT THEN! HERE!” the dad gathers up some and feeds the kid at the feeder. Spoiled!

Bluebirds House Hunting!

Posted by admin Filed Under Bird House Feeder with 4 Comments

An Eastern bluebird couple house hunting in Piedmont North Carolina. They move from nest box to nest box looking for the ideal spot. In this case the first nest box visited is vacant and available. The second nest box is equipped with a color Internet camera. A female Carolina Chickadee is currently building a nest in it. If you look closely at the end of the movie clip you can see the female Chickadee dart into the nest box as soon as the bluebirds leave. You can see live video from the nest camera box by entering the URL shown below in your browser: help-for-bluebirds-1.homeip.net

If you could be any type of bird, which would it be?

Posted by admin Filed Under Bird House Feeder with 25 Comments

I’ve noticed I have numerous types of birds visiting or living in my yard. Just today I saw cardinals, blue jays, house wrens, a brown thrasher, bluebirds, hummingbirds, some sort of large, red headed woodpecker (with a round head, no crest), mockingbirds, sparrows, robins and a couple more which I have no idea what they are. I also have a catbird living close by.

And so I started wondering what sort of bird I’d like to be if I could be one, and I think I’d like to be an owl of some sort. I think it would be cool to glide through the trees like a sentinel of the night or perch on a very high limb, just a silhouette against the Moon.

What about you? What bird would you like to be, if any?

Thanks,

Mealworms, Orioles and Interviews, oh my!

Posted by admin Filed Under Bird House Feeder with 1 Comment

One of our customers, Sandra McCollam, has Baltimore Orioles at her feeders this winter. Gregory went to visit and take footage of the orioles eating mealworms and give an interview to Sandra. Gregory also talks about the mealworms and who else they attract. PS. The ratio of sugar and water that the Orioles like is 6 parts water and 1 part sugar. No dye or food colorings and use plain sugar only.
