there were lots more last week,
this bush was loaded I think what you see in the photo were under the ripe
ones that have gone.; 8 August 2007 at 19:44
Janice Thomson said...: Oh no! ...they wouldn't be caged (sorry, wrong word) - I could never do that. My brother did this - he had an outside basement wall(wooden) with openings for all the birdies. Inside he had an extra extra thick glass wall (with door for cleaning purposes) so the rest of the basement was still warm, potted trees and all kinds of bird houses for nesting. The birdies were free to come and go as they pleased. He lives a long way from me but I so enjoyed seeing them when I visited. It was such a unique idea.; 9 August 2007 at 15:23
