    Thank you for stopping in. I love the premise behind your blog, “All Things Good”. There is so much negative in the world, we could all use a little more positive news!

    Loved this. I do love birds! I raise Zebra Finches. They are so cheerful and happy! I love to step out the door now and hear bird song. Unfortunately, we don’t get it often. We have a lot of crows and they scare off the smaller, ‘singier’ birds. 🙁
    Thank you for sharing!

    Diane, we have a lot of common grackle in our yard, and my understanding is they are like the “vermin” of birds.

    They should have cshoen your yard!! There is quite a shortage of nest boxes and nesting? cavities where we love,,we got lucky,,,after 2 days of the nest box up,,,they were investigating it!We feed so many meal worms,,buffet style!! We have now started our own mealworm colony,,,because we get 2 Black Phoebes and a few Yellow Rumped Warblers eating them as well!It is nest building day 15 for us now and it looks like she will be laying eggs soon!!

    Liz, the woman that does these nature excursions in our area is wonderful. Our homeschool groups brings children of all ages and she works with all of them from the teeny tots to the teenagers!
