Finally -- Posted by Bob Becker on 02-07-04 12:57
Finally after 2 or 3 idle months I have birds at my thithle feeder.
Not only at the thithle feeder, but actually fighting over it.
I think the 4-5 inches of snow we are getting has something to do with it.
My regular feeder is mobbed by flocks of LBBs, and I think the
thithle thock is getting the overflow.
It's a good thing I don't have a thithter named Thue.
I cry for happy.

They appear to be black-capped chickadees.
Don't the bad guys wear black hats?
