vacant birdhouses




Category: my Winter thoughts | Posted: Fri Dec 09, 2011 8:10 pm

It all started when I had to go out to feed the hungry and mischeivious squirrels ( to keep them off the feeder)
After the recent snows, the landscape is looking rather bare. I happen to notice the vacant birdhouses still out in various spots. Some of them are pretty old and I wouldn't blame a bird for not wanting to take up residence... but they do have a certain charm, and I leave them out over winter.
I'll probably need to buy or build some new houses before my spring birds come back to nest.

They are most definitely charming! I'd find it hard taking them down.

I lurve those birdhouses, Kay.
With the dreaded snow they look a little extra cute.
