'New' Feeder

. Tuesday, May 11, 2010 .

Last summer Mark and I went 'treasure hunting' sorta over close to his old Circuit City store. It was Large Item Pick-Up Day...and day where it is okay to go through someone else's garbage. I saw the top of this sticking out of a box. It is a National Geographic brass bird feeder. I thought about polishing it up but then saw how much work it was going to be and decided against it. We had it out for awhile in several different places and the squirrels always seem to be able to find it. So this year I saw it again in the barn and decided to try again. Yesterday we had all kinds of birds on it. The 'junk' birds were feeding on the Mercedes 1224 in the back bed. All kinds of good birds, like this cardinal found the feeder in record time. I enjoyed watching them all day. The this morning when I looked out...no seeds to be found. Guess the squirrel nation found it. So do we feed the birds or the squirrels? Just guess it will have to be both.

I can imagine that you are cracking up...thinking 'are these people crazy!' You won't be the first to think that. Let us know what you thought was a really cool idea...and maybe share some of your own ideas...where do you think we come up with all this cool stuff?
