It has been an unusually cold winter for central west Florida.

What fun to see all your birds. My favorite line: <b>"Zick dough is like crack. Brown Thrasher is an addict. See the dough?"</b> Heh heh. I can just imagine the birds hammering at your windows if you forget to give them a hit. ;-)<br /><br />As always it's a pleasure to visit your gorgeous, thoughtful site.Dawnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01818111801666078642noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35675426.post-29893325043628247632010-03-08T22:18:27.892-05:002010-03-08T22:18:27.892-05:00Doug, where are you in North Carolina, or in this ...Doug, where are you in North Carolina, or in this world, that you don't see Starlings 365 days a year?

We're under a foot of snow, more falling today; the poor woodcocks are wandering in the road, having no place to go. Everyone's cranky and tired of the relentless cold and snow. We should have been hearing peepers for two weeks by now. I hear you!<br /><br />The Science Chimp cannot help noting the swollen left foot on your beautiful male bluebird. Does he flap a lot when he lands? It seems to be giving him pain. Looks to me like the same gout that affected my crack-addicted pair here (see my post, Uh-Oh, Zick Dough). http://juliezickefoose.blogspot.com/2008/06/uh-oh-zick-dough.html<br />If you can get more pictures of him, I'd really love to see them. You get superb detail in your shots.<br />Looks like time to cut off the crack for your birdies.<br />: - (<br />I'd love to have a brown thrasher tossing it back!<br />Oh, the dilemma of luring birds in with stuff that's bad for them.
