A great example of "messy equals bird-friendly".

After a couple of hard frosts the chicory plants are dead - but still have seeds.

The American Goldfinches and Juncos are loving this and munching down the seeds.

See?

Still a couple of pale blooms, but leaving the plants is a bird-friendly thing to do.

The Goldfinches have lost their breeding colors and are very muted now.

Bon appetite!
