Watering Hole



My whiskey barrel, pitcher pump is the local watering hole and bird bath for all the birds in the neighborhood. I sit on my front porch and watch the bluebirds, goldfinches, robins, sparrows, etc., come in for a drink. Here is a dove getting a drink after filling up with grout from the driveway. Occasionally, a squirrel will climb up and get a drink. I have to clean and refill the barrel about twice a week. The little honey locust growing next to the barrel I started from a seed that I picked up at my vascular surgeons's office a couple of years ago.
