Birds of a Feather (and a Few Uninvited Guests)

Something wonderful has happened at P&B Garden: a new element of discovery has taken flight—birds! Thanks to the fabulous Bird Buddy I got for Christmas from Jennifer.  Our Bird Buddy has welcomed an Eastern Bluebird (so regal), a dashing Cardinal, a spunky little Titmouse, a Carolina Wren, and some of the most colorful house finches. Now, if only we could keep the squirrels out. Those furry bandits treat the bird feeder like an all-you-can-eat buffet.   We’ve tried every trick in the book—and yet they persist. Enter Paul, the architectural mastermind of P&B Garden, who is determined to outwit them.In the meantime, I’ll be here planning my 2025 garden and waiting for our next bird buddy surprise. Happy gardening—and birdwatching!
