Birds of a Feather is back with our new blog, Birding and Bonding! Our previous objective remains the same. Our goal is to find all birds that live on Long Island year round. The only rule is that in order to add a bird to our list, we must see it when we are together. That's where the bonding comes in. Life can get so hectic that we sometimes fail to enjoy the more important things. This gives us a wonderful outlet to make sure we take the time.

Of course, Long Island has many migratory birds, as well. We certainly don't want to ignore them. We will blog about them as well. Armed with new cameras and renewed incentive, we look forward to getting back on the birding trail!

Apartment Birding

So when life give you lemon's you are supposed to make lemonade, so since I do love lemonade, I thought I'd try some apartment birding to see if I can attract any birds to my deck.

So I found one of my teacup feeders that I made and filled it with bird food. 
I placed it on a table on my deck, and I also purchased a Finch sock filled with Nyjer seed and hung it over my railing.

So, as you can see no nearby trees for the birds to hide in so not sure if I will get any takers on my bird feeders, but a girl can try.



So I have a perfect view of the feeders from my living room and from my kitchen window.  I will let you know if any of our feathered friends stop by for a bite.
