Entry: Feeding the birds... Monday, March 20, 2006




Chickadee Canon Digital Rebel

My girls and I and my sister and her daughter went to a walking trail near my house this Saturday. 
What is unique about it is you can go there and feed the birds from your hand. 
When we first got there I thought we may have to walk further into the forest to see them but my sister said "Look around"....and there you could see about 50 chickadees following us from tree to tree. 
So we stopped where we were. 
All you have to do is pour some sunflower seeds into your hand and then hold out your hand and all of a sudden they'll start flying over and eating off your hand.

Even my youngest (3 years old) did it and I thought it might scare her....I guess it helps that most of the birds were cute little chickadees. 

It really was a wonderful experience.
