Mon Ami, JA, gave me the idea to put birdhouses around the property.
While you're at it, don't forget to make a little birdhouse in your soul....

Has anyone heard of this new problem/issue called monkey pox. Watching the news apparently this one is curable. What’s going on with our world. One madness after another
All,
Just as a reminder, please do not push your point on others. While you can give reasons for your opinion, if you repeatedly question another person's opinion that can come across as aggressive or attacking. You can give reasons for what you do and why you do it, but it's best to keep the discussion general and NOT insist that an individual do what you are doing because you want them to do it.

It's about trying to keep us in a constant state of emergency--scare tactics.
In the U.S., the Declaration of Public Health Emergency has to be renewed every 3 months by the Secretary of Health and Human Services, or else it expires. ANY excuse to renew it will do.
Mon Ami, JA, gave me the idea to put birdhouses around the property. Since I have many trees on it, that's one of the projects I'll be attending to this summer. Hopefully some crows will stop by....though leaving meat out would attract raccoons.

I don’t leave meat out. There is breakfast, and if I am back, dusk snack. If I am trying to sleep in, they bemoan my laziness.
My regulars are crows, magpies, flickers, nuthatches, wood peckers, chickadees, blue jays, sparrows, peregrine falcons, squirrels, rabbits.
Water for drinking and bathing. Different sizes, everybody has their favourites. I have a metal gold pan that I hang from a branch, macrame holder I made, the squirrels and small birds and bees prefer it.
You will learn the sounds (from them all) when a predator is near, cat or other, if you go out and shoo away the predator, you will be earning their trust. I am not allowed to touch cats around here. They are always watching me, they don’t mind me touching dogs, but they are all very upset if I touch a cat, and they let me know it. The cats, see me and head the other way magpies and crows giving them heck.
I am trained.![]()
Do you get hummingbirds there? They are a blast to watch, hummingbirds buzzing around, defending their ground, I held one when it flew inside and alit on the windowsill, I should have got a good look, cause when I released him, he was a blur of gone.
Speaking of predators - over where I'll be they have Red-tailed Hawks and certain types of Owls. Also have packs of wild turkeys that bully racoons.
Snakes, too, make the place their home which is exciting to me. I love catching snakes.
Had to check, these little ones will become my backyard buddies: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ruby-throated_hummingbird

There are options!
Plant to attract what you want to see. Plants for butterflies, birds and bees.
Moon's @ 3 degrees tropical Aries, and Mars just went in also.
Blaze, try not to have too much fun. Saturn's watching!![]()
