I plant sunflowers for the cardinals and other seed eaters. The cedar wax wings come by for a couple of days a year to clean all the seeds off my hollies and Chinese photinias, if you walk out when they are eating it sounds like a jet taking off.

I usually get smaller birds like sparrows picking at the sunflowers that grow as volunteers in my garden. The cardinals and blue jays are more likely to be seen in the hackberry trees at the back of the yard or in the photinias that screen the side of the yard from the street. The squirrels often pick at the hackberries. I imagine the birds like them also since they volunteer regularly along the fence. Recently, I've had a lot of white winged doves in my trees, and they seem to attract hawks.
They also find lots of goodies in the fallen leaves, left to decompose over the winter!

Posted by KateOahuI saw some pretty flowers on a walk today. I’d never seen a white Hibiscus before. And I do not know what the pink flowers are.
