OPEN HOUSE

The new rental in town is still available. There have been many interested parties flying by to take a peek but no one has inquired to tour the inside. It's an OPEN HOUSE today so perhaps we'll have some 'lookers'.
Oh, looks like a possible tenant has stopped by.
Chickadee

We still have some trim to install in the mouse-house and we have yet to pick out a black kitchen counter-top. Most of our time is taken up with moving more bins of 'stuff'  from our old house to the garage. It seems like a never-ending chore.

Today is over-cast with lower temps. than expected. As you can see, we have tons of  snow to get rid of. Time to fill the feeders and check the suet cakes. Lots of birds have dined at the feeders today such as Chickadee, many Downy Wood-peckers, a gorgeous pair of Mourning Doves, Tree Sparrows & Nut-hatch. No Robin sightings yet.

hugs, Deb

    1. Hi jinxxxgirl...As far as I know, roasted or raw is fine but never salted. I usually just feed the peanuts in the shell or the ones bagged for birds and squirrels.I save the salted ones to go on top of chocolate ice cream. :)))

  5. Adorable new home for your feathered friends.
    I'm a bit surprised that you're choosing a black countertop. With such a small space wouldn't you want something that reflects light rather than absorbs it?
    Looking forward to photos of the finished 'nest'.

  7. I have dark blue bench tops and they show every crumb, just saying...

    You are so mind to the wildlife, I'm sure you'll get a tenant soon.
