Very dry weather hard on birds and other critters
Hey All,
Due to the unusual dry spell that we've been experiencing, please put some bowls of water out for the birds, bees, lizards and other critters around your property.
I have some on my decks and outside in the yard and see an increase
in visits every day by banana quits, thrushies, a couple of green parakeets, hummingbirds and even a young hawk the other day.
The lizards seem to prefer the dog bowl water.
Would be nice to get some rain soon! So dry!
Haven't had a really good rain since the Valentine's weekend deluge in my Northside location. We got nothing on this side from the rain that flooded some areas of town in early May.
I watch a thrushie take a nice loooooong bath in the dog bowl the other day. It was kind of fun to watch. Surprisingly, the dog didn't even care. I had to rescue a baby chick who fell in and couldn't swim a time or two as well. I fill up a planter saucer now for the little guys so they don't have to struggle with the dog bowl.
