Feed The Birds

I know, I know, I'm sure I've now got you all singing the song from Mary Poppins.......

Feed the birds, feed the birds, tuppence, tuppence, tuppence a bag......

And so on and so forth. 
Well, forgive me if it gets stuck in your head, but it seemed an appropriate title. Yesterday, my mom and I and a friend went to the Birdsong Trail at Mendon Ponds to feed the chickadees - an annual tradition. It's so enjoyable to have adorable little birds sit in your hand and eat seeds right from it. so, enjoy the pictures, and forgive me for the poor quality of some of them....I should have been using my close-up setting!





I ALMOST got this deer to eat out of my hand....I was SO close! But, nope, I was just a bit too scary for her.






It was, as always, a lovely and quiet walk through the woods. Definitely something I would recommend as a "must-do" winter activity!
