Ne nostro giardino in inverno non mancano mai risorse alimentari destinate ai piccoli uccellini (ed anche a quelli piu’ grandi!…) ma anche agli scoiattoli. Mettiamo semi di avena, frumento, girasole, palle di grasso e noccioline americane. Nella foto sopra una Cinciallegra appollaiata proprio sul contenitore di noccioline per gli scoiattoli. Funziona che lo scoiattolo arriva attratto dall’odore, si arrampica sul palo e col musetto alza il coperchio della scatola per prendere il cibo. Il guaio e’ che le noccioline non piacciono solo agli scoiattoli, come si vede nel video qui sotto…
Extensive Food Choice.
Every winter we offer an extensive variety of food to the little birds in our garden (and also for the bigger ones!…) as well as for squirrels. There is always oats, wheat, sunflower seeds, suet and penuts: in the above photo, a Great tit roosting by the box of peanuts. It is made on purpose: squirrels climb up to the box and naturally open the lid with their nose in order to grasp the food. The matter is that not only squirrels like peanuts, as you can see in the above video…

Yes, there are trees and bushes where they can find shelter… we feed them and enjoy. Thanks Linda for your visit!

Noi abbiamo piazzato le mangiatoie fuori dalla finestra della cucina, così li vediamo sempre. Loro possono trovare rifugio nei rosai e negli alberi tutt’intorno, se per caso arriva qualche predatore. Sono una discreta compagnia. Buonanotte e grazie!
