More Visitors to the Cheapskate's Garden


One of the joys of a good garden is attracting nature's visitors.  We've had around 50 different species of birds come through the yard over the years. Here are a few we've been lucky enough to catch on camera. Above is one of the western bluebirds that we see sometimes in the spring.



We also have a whole lot of birds of prey. The most common is the buzzard or turkey vulture.



Here, a house finch hangs out with a couple of white capped sparrows on our back gate.



The titmouse is a fun and welcome visitor anytime he comes.



...and, lastly, this Allen's hummingbird guards the feeders viciously.
