Rain Topples Bird Feeders

Heavy rains continued through Tuesday...
as I opened the window shade
in the morning I was astonished to see the
bird feeders were lying on the ground!
The dead tree that provided a good hanger
for them had toppled over from
all of the rain that saturated the ground
and loosened their anchor roots.

If you look closely you can see chippy
investigating the situation...



I think he must have thought this is even better!



...as he exited the fallen bird feeder
he looked very full!

Jill and Karen,
All is well! D put the tree back up with a stake and the bird feeders are back and so are the chipmunks, red and gray squirrels as well as birds! A few of the tree limbs broke off but it still is functional...

That Chippy - I don't know about him! Little munchkin!
