Some cool thistle bird feeder images:

Deer, eating from the bird/squirrel feeder

It ate the bread off the feeder perch there, then went to the thistle-seed feeder and started licking in the holes there to get the seed out. Bwah. I didn’t know deer liked thistle seed! I got a number of other shots of it playing peekaboo through the railing, but only a couple really good ones.

"…He lingers where the ripened thistle blooms,
Then soars to greet the loved one on her nest,
Tossed sunwards like a coin, in looping flight -
Oh, laughing jewel of summer, come to rest,
And cool me with your wings, block out the light,
And sing, until I care no more than you
What storms will overtake the dust I knew."
