On the homestead blog: it’s Friday… Flock Friday. This week, ducks, chickens, and hummingbirds… and a rodent. #FlockFriday 🦆🐓

Video: Listen to lots of hungry hummingbirds. Sound up! After refilling the hummingbird feeders, I stood nearby outside and recorded several of them arriving, with the lightsaber-like wing noises and twittering arguments. 📹🐦
In my bird food box, in addition to a bin of black oil seeds, is a bin with suet and a big bag of peanuts in the shell. I put out a handful of peanuts in a tray for the jays each morning. (Pictures inspired by conversation with @macgenie.)
