We had some parakeets years ago. We have humming birds that eat our honeysuckle bushes, but no outside feeders of any kind. Might be fun to put up.

We have both hummingbird feeders and Oriole feeders outside. Each spring about this time they arrive back and we have them until they leave again.
I've always wanted a parrot, just too much money.

We have a goldfinch feeder. I just love to watch them hang upside-down and eat.The other day there were 5 of the little guys on there. I have one regular feeder. Switched from mixed food to black oil sunflower seed and now we have lots of red finches, cardinals, and nuthatches as well as the regulars. Have a suet feeder which brings the woodpeckers, and one hummingbird feeder. I LOVE watching my birds and getting to know them. Dh bought me a good pair of binoculars and I enjoy getting a "birds-eye" view so to speak. :D

I have a lot of birds around the house, and my car is proof of that....lol
I had some bird feeders when we moved and need to find them and get them out and get some food.

We feed the birds in the winter time -- usually from Christmas until April or so. I put out sunflower seeds and if I can afford it thistle seed for the finches. Also the suet cakes.
I have had hummingbird feeders, but I am such a procrastinator that I am not good at keeping them filled. I guess I need to place them where I will see them regularly.

I put seed out daily for the wild doves, we just have an old outdoor table down the backyard that I sprinkle it on. If I forget to put it out they come up on to the patio and start looking around as though to say "Excuse me, we're hungry!" :D
