As a special treat to her feathered friends, my daughter added a handful of shelled pecans to the sunflower seeds on her window feeder. She wondered whether the birds would even like the nuts, but lesson learned. It took 15 minutes before all the pecans were gone. Click to enlarge photos.

It was the titmouse’s turn next….

All the regulars, the nut lovers, arrived to share a gourmet Christmas treat. Joy.
