Well, I've kitted up The Goode Huswife's "Chester". Tom-Cat (orange tiger) and Solomon (brick tiger) were quite adamant that this would be my next project.

I've mentioned that the Violet-green Swallows are house-hunting. What I've failed to mention is depth and breadth of the housing available to them. We put up two more bird houses last weekend, and now have a range of nine domiciles from which they can chose. Surely there is something for everyone!
The small Downy Woodpecker is not the least interested in any housing I might provide. The last couple of mornings he has been pounding away high up in a Big Leaf Maple.
The Lesser Goldfinches now number two pair!
Here's a good case study of the yellow finches.
The top tier has a female and male Lesser Goldfinch.
The bottom tier has two male (Greater?) Goldfinches!
What a lovely photo with the finches, their colours are so Spring like.

ReplyDeleteOh my gosh, what great houses you have for the birdies!

Chester is so cute, Beth--hadn't seen that chart before and I'm sure you'll enjoy stitching it! Lesser Goldfinches? I wonder if the poor things have an inferiority complex with a name like that :)
ReplyDeleteChester is going to be great fun to see - enjoy.
ReplyDeleteChester looks like a fun stitch! Great bird houses!
