Life around The Pear tree

As you can tell by the lack of grass we feed the birds and critters under the pear tree. I would much rather see them then the grass anyway. We get a wide variety of birds. From a female oriole, the male wouldn't come down from the tree to a pair of cardinals, blackbirds and jays. I think we get around 30 or more species throughout the year. Plus finally flowers.

The plum tree's blooms. Will they be the last ones?

I love the female cardinal with her bright orange beak. She gets along well with the jay.

So How many bunnies do you see?

Of course when I see one and grab my camera Patches tares off running through the doggie door and scares it away. I think I counted 3 bunnies. Your pictures are great. Thanks for sharing.
