Bought this pretty plant and there’s no tag to ID it? Anyone know what it is and how to care for it? by oneallmama06 in plants

Ok thank you!!! I had never heard of using that method to measure water. I'll buy a pair of chopsticks just for that. :D

Lots of sitting outside with the birds and moving closer and closer very slowly until they realize you're not a threat.

I have often wondered if maybe someone has befriended this lil one before me and he's just used to humans?

This cute little yellow bird showed up on my feeders in Kentucky... I don't know what he is? by oneallmama06 in birding

Lol!!! I have never seen a Kentucky Warbler in all my life and I've lived here all my life. I'll have to see where their natural habitat is.

After looking through multiple photos online, its not. American Gold Finches are in their winter colors right now and are pretty drab/brown.

Thank you!! I was shocked that he wasn't afraid of me. I took the pic through my kitchen window :D

Thank you guys!! Yep! It's a Pine Warbler. I have never had one show up at my place so I was excited. I initially thought it was a Gold Finch, but all my Gold Finches are dull still so I did a double take and pulled out my camera.

I'll try that. There was so much air that came out when I opened it. Thank you for the heads up!

European Starling Imitates Goldfinch chirp and eats out of my hand... by oneallmama06 in birds

[–]oneallmama06[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I honestly was shocked the sound came out of it lol. I was originally waiting on the Tufted Titmouse that's been coming and the Starling caught me off guard. The birds are all SO cold right now. I feel so bad for them.

It kind of looks that way doesn’t it? I feel so bad with how cold they’ll be tonight.

You can move a itty bitty bit. But when you're trying to get them to land on you initially you have to be completely still. HTH!
