This little Carolina Chickadee pulled a seed straight from a sunflower that grew wild in my garden, sprouted from a seed that spilled out of the feeder months ago.
One seed became a flower. The flower became food. Nothing wasted.

One of the juvenile Eastern Bluebirds that left the nest back in July showed up at my feeder. Great to see it looking healthy and doing well on its own.

Not his most glamorous look, but it’s all part of the process. This male Northern Cardinal is in the middle of his summer molt, swapping out old feathers for fresh ones. I photographed him in my yard here in Arkansas, scruffy but still striking with that bold orange beak.
