The backyard has 3 vege garden areas. Anything that isn't a vege garden is weed matted under the bark for low maintenance. There is a compost bin, outdoor table, a cranberry tree and lots of strawberries. Lawns are maintained as part of the rent. The back yard gets morning sun and end of day sun as well.

Have seen an uptick in House Finches lately. Now have around half a dozen with at least 3 different males including this attractive reddish male.

This guy came right up the window where I was at shooting some images birds outside the back door. Almost had a face to face encounter with one of our cats.

This young male cardinal and I seem to have an unspoken agreement...
I will provide lovely food for him at his backdoor which limits whining to his parental units...
In return...
he loudly and consistently "announces" his arrival to the feeder - preening, parading and posing until I've had MY fill of shooting...;-)
