Black capped Chickadee with leg bands, Home, Belchertown, MA, Apr 2, 2021
After getting back from Florida at the very end of March I have been able to check the cameras around the yard as well as check on the progress in my duck boxes after finding the first eggs of the season in one box just before we left. The new water feature has continued to capture more birds (as well as a Raccoon) with five new species for the spring season so far. A check of the duck boxes yesterday found two of the three boxes with multiple eggs in them. I also managed to get some photos of one of the banded Black capped Chickadees coming into the feeders. No sign of the other two banded chickadee recently but hopefully they are still around.
That is a very cool water feature. And it's been a while since I've seen a fox sparrow in my yard. Love it!
ReplyDeleteI just installed this new in the fall last year after my old one finally died...really looking forward to what it attracts this spring. Always great to have Fox Sparrows around for sure.
DeleteWe only have sprinklers, but the hummingbirds love yo zoom through them!
ReplyDeleteAlways amazing what a little water will draw in
