They know the Hail Mary and Glory Be and my oldest knows the OF. I just need to make it a thing, maybe the CD will help! :DMaggihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02156079042755221418noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3943060470929085549.post-68396086512332754682016-07-21T09:01:39.248-04:002016-07-21T09:01:39.248-04:00Maggi,

They just seem to enjoy holding them and looking at them. ;-)Tiffanyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05772700828819881141noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3943060470929085549.post-66050822434351001672016-07-20T20:54:33.249-04:002016-07-20T20:54:33.249-04:00Nooooooooooooooooooooo! That is the WORST, I am so...Nooooooooooooooooooooo! That is the WORST, I am so sorry you're losing the birds. :/ We had to take down our feeders because the squirrels kept breaking in. lol Hopefully the hummingbird feeder does the trick! <br /><br />Let's see...funny story to help Tiffany feel better...hmmmm...<br /><br />Okay, try this one:<br /><br />So I have two daughters, one is 7 and the other is 5. They were recently baptized Catholic (having never been baptized before my conversion) and as a gift, they each received a gorgeous rosary featuring Our Lady of Guadalupe. I explained to them, very seriously, how this was not a toy, it was sacred and needed to be treated as such. It was not to be left on the floor, not swung around their heads like a lasso. I also encouraged them to use it, it was a way to get close to their Blessed Mother. Tey could talk to her anytime and ask her to pray for them, for whatever they needed, etc. <br /><br />My 5 year old kisses the crucifix and then whispers into it, "I'd like some gummy bears please..."<br /><br />>.<Maggihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02156079042755221418noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3943060470929085549.post-74453711261771563562016-07-20T15:34:38.414-04:002016-07-20T15:34:38.414-04:00Allison, I knew you were a bird lover too, I shoul...Allison, I knew you were a bird lover too, I should have asked you way back when! Thanks for the suggestions, I especially like that second one. The cardinals would be too big :( but I really don't see a solution for them that doesn't have the falling seed problem. We get overrun by Grackles too, and though I don't have anything against them personally, they can be a bit of a nuisance. ;-) So this type of feeder would keep them out too. We do have sparrows and finches here, and smaller Downy Woodpeckers. I've never seen anything else exotic that is smaller, just not the right setting for them, not country enough. ;-)Tiffanyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05772700828819881141noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3943060470929085549.post-56095498535843457752016-07-20T15:04:25.957-04:002016-07-20T15:04:25.957-04:00Haha this is hilarious!

We could be friends, I'm a bird lover too, my last post is about the bluebirds I have nesting in my yard!<br />Although we don't have rats here, well, not that I've ever seen, just mice. They don't bother my seed, just an annoying but cute chipmunk that has figured out how to run up a metal shepherds hook to get to my seed? I put vaseline on it and that took care of that issue.<br />But I hate House sparrows, if that's what you have too, they kill bluebirds :(<br />Is the rat just eating whatever falls on the ground? I have this bird feeder which works well for containing most of the seed, if you don't have success with hummingbirds (I never have) you could always try a style like this that catches most of the fallen seed on the tray. Mine was much cheaper at a farm supply store, but here is the amazon link to show you what I mean http://amzn.to/2auV0yq<br />or a simliar one http://amzn.to/29ZBWLeAllisonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18037863893536646602noreply@blogger.com
