Bird Watchei W
Saturday, Not. 8
A lady called me up wondering what might be wrong
because the birds did not come to a feeder that her husband
had made and set up. I told her it often took the birds a
while to find a feeder, especially one that had the look of
newness. But with the coming of cooler weather and an in
creasing shortage of food the birds will look harder to dis
cover available sources.
The number of people who feed birds must be very large.
Most of us do it for our own pleasure in seeing the birds
around as much as for the good of the birds. However, I am
sure it does help to support a larger population of birds than
could exist otherwise. The one principle that I try to follow
in feeding birds is to be regular with it. If the birds become
accustomed to finding food at a certain place and it is not
there, they may go hungry. This is especially true when you
feed in the late afternoon as I do, because if they do not have
enough food and the night is cold they may perish. The
feathers of bird3 make a warm covering, but they also have
gpod furnaces inside them and they must have food to stoke
the furnace.
Sunday, Nov. 9
I was talking to J. H. on the phone and he asked me
whether more house sparrows had come down my way. He
devised a shocker on his feeding tray so that when they
gang up on it he can give them enough of a shock to make
them want to move elsewhere. Luckily they do not seem to
have come down here. I have been feeding fairly late in the
day and have had relatively few house sparrows when I
throw out the chick scratch. They do tend to monopolize the
suet feeder, though.
Speaking of house sparrows. I was reading today in an
English bird book lent me by J. H. that probably starlings and
house sparrows are the most widely distributed birds in the
world. They have either been introduced or gone on their
own to a great many different places. Why people have in
troduced them I don't know. We must credit them both with
being highly adaptable creatures.
Monday, Nov. 10
This being a school holiday as well as a preacher's day
off we decided to take a trip to Lake of the Woods. My son
and his boy friend were along, so we didn't make bird watch
ing our primary objective. We wanted them to have fun and
for some strange reason they haven't discovered that bird
watching is fun. We found snow before we had reached the
top of the Dead Indian grade and there was some all the way
to the lake. It was very pretty on the trees and we (my wife,
that is) took some pictures. At the lake it was quiet and
pleasant. The summer crowds have dispersed. Cool breezes
blew and it was rather chilly picnicing in the open.
There were a number of birds on the water. The only
ones I identified were coot, eared grebe and bufflehead ducks.
On land we saw the inevitable juncos and Steller's and gray
jays. The latter are the kind commonly called "camp rob
bers." On the way home, near the foot of the Dead Indian
grade we saw a golden eagle. An eagle is always a fine bird
to see, when you are lucky enough to find one.
Tuesday, Nov. 11
At about 4:30 p.m. I took a drive out north of town
looking to see if I could find the place where robins or star
lings were roosting. I didn't find that but I saw a most gor
geous sunset of many changing colors. As the dusk was deep-
pninsr I saw four marsh hawks hunting for mice in tne
meadows above Hoover lakes.
Thursday, Nov. 13
I received a letter down at tne Mail iriDune oixice. it
onoincort a mnt rpmarkahle bird oicture cliDDed from an
eastern newspaper. It shows a cardinal feeding a goldfish at
the edge of backyard pool. It says the cardinal did this for a
period of about two weeks. Birds will instinctively feed
babies other than their own, but how one ever got started
feeding goldfish is more than I can fathom. I guess that is
why we have newspapers - to ten us aooui me wmigs Hap
pening that we would never expect.-T.M. .
