Sweetfern, Comptonia peregrina, is neither sweet nor a fern. It looks like something the dinosaurs would have walked through, releasing the warmest, spiciest aromas of imagination.

brief bird bulletin
I've been scattering sunflower seed on the ground,
Very nice. There are birds that prefer branches around as well. If there's thick shrubbery, then it would be a miracle not finding a tweeting mass of sparrows in there.
Pretty cardinals. My ex-husband's grandmother always told us when you see a redbird, you should close your eyes and make a wish. :) The doves here love to eat the cat food I put out for the street kitties.
