The Bird Scenes & SUNFLOWERS

There are about 1,801 seeds in this monster size sunflower head. I could have 1,801 seedlings for replanting next year. Problem is where to plant thousands of sunflowers? I don't think I will cover the yard with sunflowers. Not a chance. I could probably plant hundreds but not thousands of sunflowers.

Anyway, some of the seeds will be used for snacks and for bird seeds.

Looking for birds...

I haven't seen those big eagles. They are not nesting on those fir trees anymore. My husband said they are probably along the banks of the rivers or lakes or on those other bodies of water feeding on fishes. Birds of all kinds don't eat seeds alone, they also eat fruits and other small creatures in the wild aside from scavenging from the garbage dumpsite.

There are other birds that frequently visit the garden for berries. They are the crows, seagulls, the robins and there's another bird I saw at the front yard. Hey there bird, what kind of bird are you? This is the same specie of bird I sighted perching on a pear tree in the place where my husband works.

MORE PHOTOS:

The gorgeous, colorful bird on this photo above is probably the "northern flicker." darn! It was too late for me to zoom in my digital camera because it flew right away. Feeling disappointed of course. Next time, maybe next time I will have the chance to capture the best photo image.

This black bird could be a crow. A raven is much, much bigger than this. This black bird seen as watching the neighbor's grape vineyard.

My sister Emmy once told me that stellar jays or blue jays frequently nibble on their grapes at the backyard, so she covered the grapes with plastic bags and let them grow bigger until October.

There will be different kinds of birds and they will fatten themselves before Autumn comes, before Winter comes before they migrate to warm places. They are like bears and other animals who store and save  their food for future use.

Well, duh, humans have the same kind of saving and keeping their food. Everyone's waiting for caselots sale from Overwaitea (SOF) and other supermarkets who used to offer case lots sale for Autumn Season.

It's only 11 degrees C. this morning and now at this point in time it's already 15 degrees C.
