"Bird Sanctuary"

[Joel Eade]

I think Cardinal Flower is a good perennial shade plant for hummingbirds. As for song birds they readily perch in any tree if there's feeder nearby There are many birds that like Holly berries including Waxwings.

I hated mowing around our Holly tree when I was younger. Finally picked up the ax and cut the darn thing down. Mom wasn't happy, but I was. :-)

Birds, deer, turkeys, coyotes, etc. seem to like mulberry trees. They start popping up all over once the birds start spreading the seeds (seed laced purple poop). And at the end of the season the birds start doing some really funny things when the berry's ferment (drunken birds are not very wise birds).

Sounds like a real George Washington story.
