Wayne, here are a couple of snaps of the back yard feeder arrangement.
As you will note, this is not a "garden". At this time it is in need of
its biweekly mowing, but the bushes and fence lines are trimmed only
twice a year, so the birds find it rustic enough that they are
comfortable here. They emptied the hanging feeder during yesterday's
drizzle. I need to get it refilled.

Hope that helps you get the full picture.

I'm pushing my effective range to the limit with these shots of activity at the
sunflower seed feeder. The first shows the migrating Rose-Breasted Grosbeak

Gold Finches are also passing through our area. Here, a pair is sharing the
feeder trough to start the day.

This old feeder is the second of its type to top this post, far enough from the
house to put the birds at ease, yet close enough that I can observe and
photograph the diners.
First one is pushing it. The gold finches are nice. I don't know much about
birds, but it seems there are quite a few that migrate through your area?
I noticed the feeder. Wondering how many do you have?
If you don't mind, it would be interesting to see a shot of your yard with all
the feeders.
