MARTIN antics !
This story has two happenings. Early this morning I saw it happen....then Lamar witnessed it later this afternoon (before our storm).
We're seeing a couple of Martins come thru a bit the last wk. or so.
Today, I was on the porch (WITH camera, ofcourse!) when Martin flew into the "garden". They are pretty good looking birds....dark black w/some red markings.
I watched.....he's a pretty large bird, and he tried to land on a couple of the feeders. He's tooo big, so doesn't work well for him.
Now this is one SMART bird.....
Yep! He sat on an adjoining branch, turned his head, and ate out of the tray bottom. It was such a sight!!
Then he'd take seeds and crack them on yet another branch!!
1st pic was this morning. Above happened EXactly the same way this afternoon.
What a bit 'o FUN ....
Bird watching is indeed a unique "hobby".
