These are the birds of the week eating like a bunch of pigs between them and the woodpeckers. I took these pictures all at one time so I know I have 3 of the Rose-Breasted Grosbeak. They are beautiful birds. I had a scout last year but they didn't stay around but this year I have these 3 and I believe they have nests somewhere near by. I am glad I get to enjoy them. As you can see it was taken while it was raining they didn't stop, water was dripping off their tails.

Sharp eye
This fellow has a sharp eye and catches my birds. You can tell when he is around the birds make an exit and wait until he is gone. Sometimes it is hours. One day a squirrel almost ran into him on the ground that would have been a sight to see, not sure who would have won that battle
The Blue Jay only comes by in the early morning and will eat on the ear of corn that I have out for the squirrels so they won't eat the sunflowers seed it is a battle, some days he wins. Not sure how many there are.
This is one of my favorite birds to watch. It was storming when I took these pictures and he would look around when he heard the thunder and rain would hit him in the head but he never stopped eating.
Farm report: Yes we have been busy with calving not sure of the number but there are several little calves on the ground running around in the pasture neighbors love to stop and watch.
Looks like the rain has passed through and maybe we have a third of a inch all rain is welcome in small amounts as I think we need more moisture in the ground.
Until we talk again Be safe

Wildlife to enjoy
Been quite some time since I have been on here. The birds help feed the squirrels and then the hawks helps himself to the birds. Gods plan I guess they all get to eat that way. I started it all by putting out feed I can't stop now I have been feeding the birds for years.
All the crops are in and the cattle worked ready for this winter. The cows are in the field behind our house where they will spend their time until spring. Just thought I would drop in maybe be back again take care.

FFA Visit
We had a group of FFA students from N Caroline. Their event in the county was canceled because of weather. They stopped by and also visited the Candy Kitchen We were happy to have them
Farm report: we are like all farmers in our area too wet to work the last few days. They were able to work the weaned calves they get shots for deceases like Black leg etc.
We need some drying days so we can finish beans. We will move on to corn and knock out some of those acres. Take care until next time
