The Connecticut Dept Of Environmental Protection (DEP), does not recommend feeding birds during the warm months of the year. This is do largely to the ever increasing bear population in the state.Feeding birds year round opens up fantastic opportunities to view birds like the Rose-breasted Grosbeak. I read that the Rose-breasted Grosbeak usually keeps to the treetops, and only rarely can be seen on the ground. I'm not sure how true that is, because I see them everday at my feeding station. Summer is a great time to feed birds. You get to view migratory birds that would not be seen at a winter feeder.
And if a bear starts to eat your bird feeder? Enjoy it, don't fear it!

They were one of my favorites in NH. We would be sad not to feed the birds in the summer... one can enjoy them so much when out near them. Keep the pictures coming! Love, Mom
What a lucky young man Tommy is to have you in his life.
The meaning of a father is not in our DNA it's in the things we do for our children...You, without a doubt, go above the call to show Tommy and Jordan how much you love them...That is a true "Dad"!!!!
