Calling all birdwatchers

Imbibing Before Taking Wing Not for the Birds (washingtonpost.com)Here is a kind of funny story I thought our bird watching family might enjoy. Sort of trajic but interesting. By the way the ceder waxwing is fairly rare around here but it is on my list. Steve I'll try my new linking technique when I have a bit more time.

We got a new birdfeeder last weekend. They come in high tech models these days. We ended up with one that has a spring-suspended wire mesh around a plastic center. When a squirrel gets on it, the weight is supposed to be enough to cause the wire mesh to lower and cover the holes that provide access to the bird food. The birds have found the feeder, but I confess that I find myself really wanting to see a squirrel on it.
