Every now and then I like to “redecorate” the feeding station for our backyard birds, changing out a few branches for perches and adding some new places for them to feed.
The latest addition is a pair of platforms consisting of two large chunks of bark that hubby screwed onto some branches that I scavenged from my best friend’s mountain property.
I loaded one of them up with mealworms, which has quickly become a favorite of the Phoebes…


…and of the Pine Warblers as well!


And I packed the other platform full of peanuts, which the White-breasted Nuthatches love to grab and go.


Now, neither of these new dining locations may ever merit a Michelin rating, but I’m pretty sure they’ll receive the highest of Avian Awards!
