I saw a large cardinal swinging on it last week and I found it on the ground once. My husband and I were just talking about securing it better and then the next day, it was gone. Not lying on the ground. Not anywhere in the yard that we can see. Just gone. It was an anniversary present (copper) and the birds loved it.

Congrats on your robins!

The squirrels have never messed with it before, even when it got knocked off. At least as far as I can tell.

I usually see them the second week of March. They are very welcome to stay for as long as they like!

Spring has sprung!

I've noticed the starlings looking for places to nest in the building next door at work, also.

The snow has melted off and my daffodils have big fat buds on them. Spring is springing, if not yet sprung.

Today, it's a symphony out there! Everyone is so happy to see the sun and feel warmer temperatures!
