Hi All, Pete arrived at 120 Lynngate early, as usual, to check the feeders. The pigeon came down to feed at 8:11 a.m. and gorged on the birdseed. Pete had placed the platform feeder close to the tree the bird usually sits in, and the bird started using that feeder quite regularly yesterday. Hopefully the bird finds the yard even more attractive as a result as it did hang about a lot yesterday.
The weather forecast is rather wintry today, especially for areas north and east of us. Check highway conditions along your route before you head out today. Good luck!
