How interesting to see the Scarlet Tanagers changing color. Are they still yellow when they arrive in spring? It didn't occur to me that perhaps only folks here up north get to see them in their red plummege. The Summer Tanagers look so big compared to the other birds. I've never seen one in person. Always makes me smile when the Morning Doves show up. They're such a sweet bird. Thanks so much!! Have a lovely week!! 🥰🌿♥️
@@meglange3595 The Scarlet Tanagers are usually fully red when they arrive here in the spring. I had one this year that still had some yellow left but that was unusual. I don’t know, though, if they are fully red before they leave their winter homes. Good question! I would guess it’s probably like the little Yellow-rumped Warblers that overwinter here. I catch a very short glimpse of them in their spring plumage before they leave and then they’re already back to the winter plumage when they return. Have a great week!
I just wanted to thank you as you DIY pebble pond recently showed up in my RUclips feed. I have now made me a pebble pond and it’s still a work in progress until I get it exactly as I want it. The birds seem a bit of afraid of it yet but have had a couple of bathers and I was most excited to see an oriole as I don’t sure them until migration starts. Again thank you for taking the time to make the DIY video.
I’m jealous about the Oriole! One of my favorite birds but I don’t see them very often. Your birds should get used to the new pond pretty quickly. If they still seem wary of using it, make sure there are some perches nearby for them to sit on to check things out before getting in. A few branches places around the edges works well for that.
Good morning and thank you for another interesting video. It's one of the reasons I look forward to Sunday mornings. I had a red tailed hawk visit my backyard earlier in the week. I often hear them calling and see them in the tops of trees. Have a great week!
I guess they were named during the spring/summer months? So part of the year the Scarlet Tanagers are yellow tanagers. So weird. And the male Summer Tanagers stay red. The bunting is cute! Splish splash, birds are taking a bath. The dove was thirsty and then gave us a close up view.
So many birds look completely different in the fall and winter. It is weird. And confusing 😄. But I think it’s also challenging and kind of fun to try and figure it all out. Thanks for watching!
You've motivated me to make this pond. I order all the "ingredients " yoi used:) This video is with the small pump linked in Amazon right? The under $50 mini pond?!
This video is actually a larger water feature that uses a bigger pump. I built this one about 12 years ago, long before I started doing RUclips, so I didn’t have any “how-to” video about making it. But people often ask about making something similar for themselves, so I made the mini pond and did the DIY video for that. Although this pond is larger, all of the birds that come to this one, including the Tanagers, also visited my mini pond. The birds seem to really be attracted to small pools like that. Good luck with your project! I hope it brings you and your birds lots of enjoyment.
So calming and serene! Thank you for taking the time to upload your videos with detailed descriptions of each feathered friend! 😍🥰🥰🙋🏻♀️
You’re very welcome. Thanks for watching! Always nice to hear that people enjoy the videos. I enjoy making them.
❤❤❤
Love to see your beautiful birds!❤

@@vickiebrannon5217 Neat! Red Tails are my favorite of the hawks. They’re so big! Thanks for watching and have a great week!
