I wouldn't even know where to get them here in KC. I need to get them ordered; I had looked at composters.com and some other sites, will probably get them there.

I haven't seen any for a few days either.....neither has my baby girl. BUT now every bird she sees, she points at and gets excited. Especially the big hawk we keep seeing in my neighbors Sycamore.

Thanks all. This is my first year trying to feed Hummers w/ Sugar Water.
Of course being the geek I am, I have my daughter (21 months next week) looking for 'Birdies,' all the time now out the door while she's eating breakfast. She's seen the Hummers twice now and I am SO proud :)

I thought so too. I hadn't ever heard anyone removing food/water/ anythign for that matter, so I thought I was right, but you never know. The GOOD thing that has resulted from them taking their feeders down is that all their Hummers have been hanging out at my house. Durn the bad luck! ;)

Hummingbirds in the Fall

My neighbor took down all his hummingbird feeders this weekend because, 'they need to migrate and will stay around if they have a food source.' My argument (for keeping mine up) was, what about the migrating hummers from further North on their way going south over the next few weeks. Who is right, o...

Excellent. Thanks Debbie. I wanted to get my bins ready over the holiday weekend, but didn't have a chance. Hopefully this coming weekend I'llhave them ready. My wife isn't even remotely excited about the prospect of picking up any worms for me. Even if she doesn't buy me any, my grandparents usuall...

Might sound like a silly question, but how high is your lowest hole on the side? 6 in ? 10 ish ?

Thanks.

Kudos to you!

I don't think we have any geckos around here (at least that I've seen,) but we do have some Skinks that I used to see on an old brick home we used to live in.

I saw a thing on Ripley's Believe it or Not the otherday about Griggsville, IL that has THOUSANDS of Purple Martin birdfeeders all over the city and they don't have nearly the Mosquito problem they had prior to a former city officials idea to promote the bird housing.

Just a though ;)

A lot of my family members have Blue Heelers. They are very trainable, my uncle actually has a male and a female (and 8 pups) right now, but the adults will sit/shake/jump/hold food on their nose until they are told they can have it/ cull cattle/etc. I've seen Red's, but have no experience w/ them. ...

Next time you are in the states you are welcome to take back the THOUSANDs that we have near my house, helping themselves to pounds of my bird feed, tomatoes, and whatever else they can tear into.

Squirrel B@G's

:) Heh, sorry, but that's good stuff.

That's one squirrel that definitely would be ending up in some biscuits and gravy just as soon as squirrel season started if that had happen to me. Thank you for sharing; I think you'll be making a LOT of people chuckle w/ that one.
