Shyly, the latest to join our flock, and so named due to standing back to observe rather than rushing on in at his first seedtime, has developed a desire for corn. As soon as the seeds are dropped onto the plate, Shyly will scoot all around the other birds and snatch at all the corn seeds until they are gone. Brownie is similar with sunflower seeds, but not quite so active in her chase. I thought that I would share a couple of pictures of the birds. The first is of Brownie, one of our original pair.
Next is a shot of Shyly, who often flies onto my head, or walks up the garden path, slowly following me towards the vegetable patch when I am working in the yard. He also gets under my feet when I am attempting to mow the lawn, so I need to pay attention and make sure I look out for stray birds as well as twigs or stones!
Finally, a picture of the whole flock at feeding time.
