Where Knowledge Junkies Get Their Fix
If all you would-be-Thoreau’s feel like communing with nature, but leaving the house seems like more effort than it’s worth, we’ve finally found a solution for you! Check out the new In-house Bird Feeder available at Amazon. Simply mounted into your window, it turns any sill into a hang out for your fine-feathered friends. And while our pet cat has been lobbying heavily for us to install one of these, I’m pretty certain that we won’t. Mainly because we park our cars directly beneath the one available window.

My dad hase one of these and they’re pretty cool. It has a one way mirror so that you can get pretty close (the mirror isn’t perfect so sometimes they get a shadow of you and fly off).
When he returned from Florida this year, he discovered some Mourning Doves had nested in it so he was able to watch the chicks grow up until they eventually could fly.

I thought this would make a perfect gift, but the price spooked me and I flew off.
