I took a picture of the sparrows hopping in the chili plants eating all the aphids. You have to look close, there are 3 in there I think. πŸ₯ ❀️

I have a sparrow family that visits my backyard. The parents seem to have brought the kids to show them where the birdbath is, and I occasionally throw crumbs out for them. It’s lovely to watch them scooting about

❀️ for the birdbath, over the next few weeks of no rain the birds are going to need it.

I might get a birdbath on a pedestal for the little front yard .
