They seem to only come to the feeder at certain times of the year.
Well we only put sunflower seeds in the feeder, and they like
those. Yeah they make a mess of the birdbath, but funny to watch
them dunking the bread.
JV> The mockinbirds are nesting. I love watching them flit around.
JV> They're making a real mess out of my mailbox tho....
Where is their nest? When their baby birds hatch they don't like
people around and are good at dive bombing you! I hate when they
are pecking my tomatoes, then have their baby birds sitting on the
ground under the tomato vines.....then try to dive at my head if
I go near the tomatoes or garden. GRRRRR! So hopefully their
nest isn't near somewhere you want to be!!! Or wear a hat when
you go out. hee hee!
