Faith, Feeders, and Nesting Fodder

I got my old-fashioned digital camera out.....and have taken a few pics.  So happy to see that Faith's face shows up very well with the camera.

Who can't love this face?

 

The hanging strings have done the job so far, keeping sparrows out of the feeders.

They get plenty of food from the dropped safflower on the ground...

Eyeing the feeder; the finches can't resist.  The bird hopped on three seconds later.

My other safflower feeder.  Three finches are enjoying a great feast.

 

Not a salad-----at least not for consumption.  This is cotton fabric cut into very fine strips.  This will be added to a suet cage next fall, along with Faith's brushed hair, to allow the birds to line their nests.  At least it will be used by spring to line nests for the coming spring generation....
