Bird feeding makes me feel fantastic! Well, watching birds at my feeder in the morning is zen. Watching birds at your feeder is like free T.V. Cut the cable! Well my favorite feeder bird is a titmouse. I like the Black-capped Chickadee. The little Red-breasted Nuthatch, it’s kind of the squeaky toy of birds, I think. The Carolina Wren is a close second. I like the Blue Jay because blue is my favorite color. The first bird feeder I ever hung up was probably an orange feeder! Okay, I’ve tried a lot of feeders that have failed. And I really wanted a Baltimore Oriole, and I never got my Baltimore Oriole. I…I kinda went down the rabbit hole. And then I was hooked, and then I got a platform feeder, and then I got a suet feeder, and then I got a hummingbird feeder. But I got a Gray Catbird, and I don’t know if the bird knows it but we’re probably best friends now. My grandmother has a bird feeder, and I have a bird feeder, and we don’t live close to each other. And wouldn’t you know our bird feeders rank very highly on our list of conversations. Feeding birds makes me feel happy! Actually getting to see birds up close, that causes pure joy in my family! We run to the windows, we point at it and we say, “Look there’s a goldfinch, look there’s a goldfinch!” When birds come…they bring love to the world, basically.
