All this winter and into spring I've had a cute little white capped chickadee at my feeder. He looks like he has eye brows. He spent all winter until about late April at my feeders.

Old Wren House

I find old birdhouses very appealing, their beauty and charm and how they age over time. I often wonder about the woodworker that made them and how many fledglings were raised in the house. There is just something about an old birdhouse.
