Cool Perching
This past fall I installed a pair of trellises for some native vines I am propagating. The trellises sit about two meters from the streetside feeder tree. And they're very close to a River Birch. As you might imagine, the trellises have been a huge hit for perching birds. It seems to be a good place to retreat to when the feeders seem a bit too hot for comfort -- i.e. when predators or other things are a concern. I suspect they'll be even more popular when they're encrusted with concealing vines. I don't expect to see that sight until a year from now. It won't matter to the birds: everything is cool now.
