BIRDS

[Sheldon Martin]

Tractor Supply Stores have a sale on Bird Feeding Stuffs... got 2 bird
seed feeders and seed, 2 hummingbird nector feeders and nector. I can
spend hours there looking.

[Hank Rogers]

Aren't yoose afraid you'll fall on your ass again when yoose hang
those feeders?

I'd rather spend those hours looking at the *birds*. :)

It's easy enough to make "nectar" for hummingbirds. I put 1/2 cup of
sugar in a mason jar and pour 2 cups boiling water over it. Let it
cool, put a lid on it and store it in the refrigerator. I have only one
hummingbird feeder. When I clean and refill it I immediately make
another batch of nectar to store in the fridge.

During warm months I don't offer seed or suet; there are plenty of
sources of food once the weather warms up. What keeps them coming
around at all times of the year is the bird bath which is always filled
with fresh water. I love watching them splish-splash around in the bath.

It doesn't (often) get cold enough for the water to freeze in the bath
where I live now but it did in west TN. I have a small heater for the
bath I used then.

Uncle, do they sell red tractor paint at Tractor Supply Stores? We don't have stores like that over here.

I do both. Winters here are long and hard so I stock up on seed at
sale time. I used to make nector but it's cheap enough to buy it
ready made, and the brand I buy already contains the minerals and
vitamins for proper egg shell formation.

I use one of those plastic snow coasters as a bird bath, a small
heater is added during winter. During warm weather the birds prefer
the many ponds here, they especially like the shallow vernal ponds.

Hummingbirds get nutrition from many other sources. They eat a lot of
small insects.

Yes, you have fresh water ponds. I live on one of a string of sea
islands surrounded by salt marshes. Even the tidal creeks are mostly
salt water. Yes, birds always find sources of fresh water but it's the
the bird bath that keeps them coming to my patio year round. :)

No seed out at this time of year. Just this morning I've seen tufted
titmice, a mated pair of cardinals, Carolina chickadees all coming to
take a sip and a dip in the bird bath. :)

Uh, why do you have to turn a pleasant avian conversation into a "contest" -- did your strap-on fall off again, Jill?

>Uh, why do you have to turn a pleasant avian conversation into a "contest".

It's easy enough to not reply. I don't keep many male friends for the
same reason, most males are very competitive... they can't abide by
admitting that I've taught them something, like how I've instructed
some men how to make their own wine, etc. A lot of males are not very
good cooks, it frustrates them to no end that they have to admit that
someone had to teach them the basics. I no longer help folks at RFC,
they are quick to steal credit. It's primarily the males who steal
credit, but many females can't cook a lick either especially the
texassians who only know cheap ass sandwhiches... any moroon can
concoct a sandwich... sandwhiches ain't cooking, no how, no way.

Excellent. I look forward to you _not_ posting unsolicited advice that
does not apply to my situation.

Only Sheldon can cook. Time for rec.food.sheldon. Nobody's allowed to
read it, though. Copyright reasons, you know.

He's posted far more sex stories than food related stuff.

About the only thing he's good at.

(piggybacking, sorry Sheldon)

I didn't turn anything into a contest, Mr. Hawaii. We were discussing
birds and habitats in our different regions and you decided to turn
troll. Go buy some more fried fish with cabbage buried underneath and
don't dare eat the cabbage.

My new seed feeders are working nicely... only all the fallen seeds
are scoffed by the Canada geese. Oh well, can't blame them.

[Hank Rogers]

Popeye was involved. That means it would have turned into a
goddamned kinky sex story within two posts anyway. That really
excites you, right?

I'm disappointed, Jill. You're the big expert on trolls and you didn't
see that this was Greg Sorrow posting under dsi1's name? Look at the
email address.

But they will likely leave during passover.
