Hi- I live in Cross Junction at Holiday Lake. There is still a lot of
acreage untouched and will remmain so for many years. I walk at night with my
dogs
in the wooded path and hear the woodthrush, Ovenbirds, C. wren, etc.
singing. I also get to hear the morning chorus as well as the evening concert.
My goldfinches like the seeds from a flower I planted two years ago,
the Dahlberg Daisy. It reseeds profusely and they love the seeds. I also let
Queen Ann's Lace grow, as it is a food for lots of butterflys.
there is nothing as peaceful as having tea on the porch and listening to the
birds in the yard. I make sure there is plenty of water for them , during
this dry spell.
ilse J.
