We were getting lots of juncos, but they apparently migrate farther north for the summer. Right now we’re getting black-capped chickadess, cardinals, goldfinches and house finches and we all find it incredibly exciting in my household! We put out a bird bath which attracted a pretty pair of morning doves. We’ve also planted some perennials that claim to attract hummingbirds and butterflies.

ps We have 3 feeders: 1 = safflower seed, 2 = thistle seed. We had black-hulled sunflower seeds for a while, but the squirrels would eat 3 pounds in a day, whereas they don’t touch the thistle and safflower seeds.
