A Feeding Place

. Putting up some fresh suet hoping winter's birds will enjoy coming to feed.. Then added some water to the bird baths so there will be drink for them to enjoy.. An hour later the Willow Tree comes alive with color__ two male bluebirds sit on the edge of bath drinking... suet eaten fast Five female Red Cardinals and two males bounce from feeder to tree and then to the bird bath. Too soon it is quiet again. Just a little excitement in an ordinary day.. Sponsor: Debbie Guzzi Contest: Mix It Up

Good haiku !!! I liked the story line as well in the verses. Thinking next year will feed the birds as well. Mostly wrens through the winter and then the cardinals too, often appear. Congrats on your win.

That must be very beautiful to see this time of year my friend! We can't do that here, it's below freezing, the water would freeze and the birds are few are far between. But where you live they are around, and it's above freezing, so you get this beautiful sight! I loved reading this delightful poem this afternoon! What a significant piece for the winter months, in the south anyway! Great Work!!
