ATTENTION
- Our eyes and ears should be open and alert to the natural wonders that surround us every day. Take time to look out our windows to see the birds that visit us and open our windows to hear them. Walk around whatever space we have to enjoy the birds in nature. Every day, work on improving our powers of observation.
ACCEPTANCE
- Nature happens. We cannot MAKE natural things happen (or NOT happen). We can create habitats to encourage natural things to happen around us, but there are no guarantees.
RESPONSIBILITY
- Birdfeeding comes with responsibilities to the birds and the environment we share with them. If you are unwilling to accept these responsibilities, you shouldn’t feed the birds. We also have a responsibility to share these natural wonders with the next generation.

Dawn - thanks!
Chad - he's thinking, "there's food down there somewhere!"
Amy - juncos are slingers too. We get the foxes regularly in migration spring and fall. They're great and welcome visitors!
Andy - behavior-watching takes it "beyond the list". Thanks for your comment!

Wonderful capture. Fun to watch a birds behavior.

Haha, great capture! Around here, the juncos are the big slingers (this time of year, anyway). I'd swoon if we'd get a Fox Sparrow in our yard!

Looks like a blast. Wonder what he is thinking?
