Hand Feeding

With Black Cap Chickadees feeding I mentioned to my two grand daughters I was going to try and feed them from my hand.

I always have peanuts in the house for the peanut feeder so I put a few in my hand and stood outside near the feeders and waited.  It didn't take long for one to land on my finger and take a peanut.  I had told my wife I had done this previously and now the three of them saw it happen.

The Downy Woodpeckers landed in nearby trees so I came in so as to let them come to the feeder so my girls could watch them up close.

Enjoyment of having back yard feeders
