Early Bird Gets The Worm

Robins enjoying our organic backyard with plenty of earthworms coming to the surface after recent rain. It is amazing how these birds, which hunt by sight, find the areas with worms surfacing and come to feed. I think they thought they found paradise with the abundance of earthworms, hackberries and fresh water!

Hummingbird enjoying fresh food

Hummingbird enjoys the new sugar water so much that he sits on the perch and takes 5 long drinks.  On his third trip back he is disrupted from visiting by the intrusion of a hairy woodpecker who has a sweet tooth.
