For The Birds De Pere

01/03/2018

we will be trying as hard as we can to start For The Birds over again...from scratch. If anyone knows of a small barn or garage in Green Bay or dePere where we can get the bird feed sales going again, I would love to hear about it. Please call me at this number by removing the asterisk. 920**3*3*6-3*7*4*8*. I would also consider taking on a partner in this incarnation. We have much to discuss. Barbara

I think is horribly cold out there...keep the feeders full so the birds can make it through the night! And don't forget a little water for them.. Thank you

We will open again soon in another location.

Don't forget to keep the hummingbird feeders clean and available. With migration starting, they will need as much support as we can give them. This is critical for a strong journey south.

Still feeding about ten Orioles at home. Never run out of jelly and keep them all summer!

Teeny, weeny, striped and greeny was the memory game to teach kids these guys.

A pine siskin on my finch feeder with a beak full of seed. There are so many of them hanging around right now. I've never noticed them before but they look so much like finches that I could have easily overlooked them.

be patient. The Orioles are on their usual jelly break for the few weeks that the females are incubating and only collecting live insects for the young. In a couple weeks, the moms bring the fledglings to the jelly feeders and teach them how to completely pig out. Stock up on grape jelly now because the frenzy is about to begin!

Wow! Today and yesterday have been great days for birding the passeriformes coming through and coming to stay for the summer...have a bunch of Indigo Buntings, yes, finally a hummingbird and Orchard Orioles. The female Northern Orioles have arrived and female Rose Breasted Grosbeaks! Winds must have been favorable the last few nights for the night flyers and all is right with the world! I hope you are all seeing and feeding all of our featured friends. I miss being at the store so much and hope that one of these days we can reopen and share our sightings.
