Waiting for the birds and lots of stripes.

Caitlin isn't looking at my car. She is watching the bird feeder she made at pre-school. (It is hanging on the light post.) She watched it for a 1/2 hour the day we hung it. She watches everyday. So far no birds have come to eat. I moved it to the bush hoping a little more shelter will help.

Check out 5 Minutes for Mom, Momspective, and Wordless Wednesday for more wordless photos.
When Caitlin got her self dressed this morning, I knew that I needed to post this for Wardrobe Wednesday. She told me she wore all the stripes to because super heroes wear stripes. Don't forget to head over to see how all the cool kids are dressing at Heathen Family Revival.

Birdfeeders always bring the kids so much fun, we had red cardinals yesterday visiting. The children did some wonderful drawings of them afterwards.

Check out Jack Frost in the Orange Groves!

Very stripey!

Lovely shot at the window.

It can take the birds a bit of time to find a feeder. Be sure it's near where they can find cover (a bush or tree). I love my birdfeeder.

Great mood in the first shot and the Lady knows to dress in style for sure. :)

My kids made one of those bird feeders a while back and the birds went nuts for it.

Love the stripes!

Awesome! You should try throwing down some bread pieces under the feeder so they know it's there. :)

What a precious superhero!

Lovely stripes!

I hope you get some birdies soon!

We live just outside of the city with a lot of trees around us so we have a lot of birds. The bird feeder keeps the cat entertained as well as the kids!

Gloria said...

hee hee hee... too cute about the stripes! If my son knew about that he'd be in stripes every single day!

Happy Wednesday.

You just can't have too many stripes!

That is so sweet! You just reminded me that February is National Bird Feeding Month. My girls love to make pine cone bird feeders with peanut butter and bird seed.

Titanium said...

Sometimes a sprinkle of birdseed on the ground nearby helps to spread the word... once they arrive, they'll bring friends! May her patience be rewarded many times over...

Mommy Kennedy said...

What a patient little girl she must be! Very adorable too.

I haven't heard of Wardrobe Wednesday before. Will have to look into that one. Sounds fun!

I have a linky up for WW if you &/or your readers are interested in linking up! http://thefrugalkennedys.blogspot.com/2010/01/wordless-or-word-filled-wednesday.html
