American Goldfinch at The Seed Ball

Posted by admin Filed Under Bird House Feeder with No Comments

The American Goldfinch feeding at my seed ball that is filled with black oil sunflower seeds. The Bright colors and the song or these Wild Canaries Are Like no other bird that comes to my feeders they add color and music to the yard. They are probably one of the easiest bird to attract to the yard just make sure that you offer plenty of clean fresh seed and a water source and you will have no problem keeping them around.

    Ideas for catching a parakeet needed!?

    Posted by admin Filed Under Bird House Feeder with 3 Comments

    We feed the wild birds and now have an escaped parakeet coming in to the feeders. Need some ideas on how to capture the little dickens as it won’t be able to survive the winter outside here in N. Central PA, USA. He/she flies very well and is happily hanging out with the house finches.

    Is there any food or treat that your ‘keet absolutely loves that might help lure the bird into a cage?

    Right now I have a bird cage nearby but letting all the birds get accustomed to that. They know when something changes around the feeders and it takes them a day or so to settle back down. Planning on putting food in the cage as the next step and progressing from there. He/she will let you get about 6 to 8′ from it before flying off right now but netting would be next to impossible.

    It is rather funny to hear a line of parakeet chatter in amongst the other birds songs and stranger still to see a yellow and bright green parakeet feeding at the feeders with the house finches.

    Any suggestions? Wild birds I have a lot of general knowledge on but domesticated ones, not so much.

    Christmas 2008: Gift List So Far. Sound Good?

    Posted by admin Filed Under Bird House Feeder with 6 Comments

    We’ll be getting married next month so this will be our first Christmas as a married couple. =] Anyways, this is who’s on the list this year & ideas of gifts for them.

    -My dad: 1 lb. pistachios [we used to always get them at Christmas, then kinda stopped], gift card to Barnes & Noble,…[not finished with him yet, he's so hard to buy for]

    -My mom: gift card to Wild Birds Ultd. [she loves birds & has a ton of feeders], pajamas, Nisim shampoo & conditioner [her hair has been thinning & she's been freaking out about it]
    *I will also be making cookies & homemade bread to take to their house for Christmas

    -My Grandma: night lights that automatically turn on when it gets dark [she lives alone & walks around in the dark at night, not good.], & this cute book called, "Grandma, Tell Me Your Memories" where its filled with questions that she could write in her memories for that question. [like, "Have you ever had bad experiences with storms?"]

    Both of my nieces: Travel cosmetic type bags with notes to use when they come visit me =]

    Nephew: some kind of toy, haven’t decided

    Brother & his wife: cookbook, jar filled with homemade hot cocoa mix & mugs

    Fiance’s mom: Wood Wick Candle, pointsetta, address book filled with all the address she gave me for the wedding & doesn’t have in an address book

    His grandma: Maltese dog calendar [she has a maltese & is in love with it]

    His 3 brothers: Homemade blankets [I had made them each one last Christmas & they loved them. But they had a house fire that destroyed pretty much everything so they were lost] & the two older ones are into their cars, so I’m thinking buckets filled with stuff for their cars [tire shine, wax, etc]. The youngest I’m not sure yet.

    Fiance: camping stuff [we love camping & cant wait to go after we're married], distortion pedal [he's been wanting one], tie, new wallet, cologne, Calvin & Hobbes book [used to read those with his brothers, nice memories], massage oils & all that romantic fun stuff we wont get into. =]
    *I’ll also be making lots of yummy Christmas cookies, etc

    Thats what I have so far. I still have to come up with gifts for:
    -2 Grandmas
    -His dad

    I’m starting shopping the day after Thanksgiving. I’m going to be one of those crazy ones =] I would start earlier but not with the wedding coming up, too crazy yet. I love Christmas, I’m so excited!!
