Mystery of the Fallen Bird Feeder

Posted on August 27, 2014 by Mama Cormier

….the hummingbird feeders are often empty after I’ve been away for a few days but I’ve never seen them on the ground

When we arrived at the cottage last weekend I found one of the hummingbird feeders lying on the forest floor and of course it was empty. In fact all the feeders were empty but the rest of them were still hanging where I left them.

I quickly filled all the feeders and rehung the fallen feeder. It wasn’t long before I discovered what caused the feeder to fall. I think the following photos are pretty self explanatory. Enjoy!

Another beauty from my neighbour’s garden at the cottage.

New Flower (Aug. 26, 2014) – Allium

Posted on August 26, 2014 by Mama Cormier

This lovely flower towers over everything else in my neighbour’ front garden. We often associate allium with the vegetables, onions, shallots and garlic but the ornamental varieties produce beautiful large flowers.
