I would love to know the names of the birds in the first and last photos.<br />We have Starlings and Finches in the UK, also Woodpeckers but not like this in the North of England. I love your new flower pot and your lovely teapot and cup! Happy T Day!

They don't allow feeders here. I'd get in trouble for feeding the grouse and jackrabbits. Glad they come around anyways for the grass. ;)<br />Pretty cup.

Wonderful photos of the birds....Happy T-day Carol! Wonderful photos of the birds....and squirrel. Because we don't get the snow and fringed temperatures here, I don't set out feeders....but I do watch them every morning come and eat off the lawn, and bath in the rain puddles. I have two doves that visit every morning, they must have a nest close by.<br />I haven't been on line much, except to try and keep up with the photo challenge..........I think I fall into the category of your first random thoughts......recharging for the spring that will come.

We stopped put up seed feeders because the squirrels wrecked them all. We finally found a suet feeder that they cannot get into.<br />Good idea on your tea choice and it must taste extra good in your pretty cup. Lovely flower pot too. I have been missing flowers in the garden lately.<br />Happy T Day dear Carol<br />Stay warm<br />Me time is always a good thing.<br />oxo~*~Patty Shttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03953758102509632020noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3361928295722812930.post-6748904485042070502016-01-19T06:20:46.162-08:002016-01-19T06:20:46.162-08:00I love your bird photos :) We don't get so man...I love your bird photos :) We don't get so many as you do, but we have regulars who like our safflower seeds and suet in winter.

I have two feeders on my fence, but since it's been so icy and cold (our temps dipped to 8F last night with wind chills in the negative numbers), I don't refill the feeder as often as I should. They do get water every day, though, because I bring it to a bird bath/feeder that sits near my mailbox.<br /><br />Your tea looks wonderful and the teapot and matching cup and saucer are gorgeous. After all, blue is my favorite color. and I always laugh when I see the honey bears. People give me empty ones and I use them to hold gesso and and other art related liquids. Yours looks more functional for drinking, though (grin).<br /><br />Thanks for sharing your birds, your new flower pot, your random thoughts, and your tea with us for T this week. Long live the honey bear.Bleubeard and Elizabethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10149710375520733752noreply@blogger.com
