The highlight of my birding year :)





Red-winged Blackbirds. I LOVE these birds - they sing and chatter away soooooo beautifully!!! I could listen to them all day :) I love seeing them perched on their cat tails/ bullrushes! I've even started growing bullrushes in my pond especilly to attract them here (planted the seeds this year so it will take a while lol)

Yet THIS year all of a sudden ONE single male showed up and STAYED!!!! :) He has been here for a few weeks and then yesterday two females showed up :) YAY!!! We may get babies here :) I am sooooooo happy!! All day long until dusk I get to hear my favourite bird!!! He comes to the feeder all day :)
