We've had them about 2 weeks here (central Georgia), but then, we've also had 90 degree weather. I can't seem to get the finches to visit here! Would love to have them, but have had no luck...

I saw my first Robin on Friday. Spring is never officially here until I do. At least that's what I've always thought lol. :)

I read in the Bird and Bloom magazine that you can attract Orioles with grape jelly. It showed putting grape jelly in the peel of an orange, dig out the insides and put jelly in. I saw an Oriole a couple years ago, first one I have ever seen around here. I love birds.
