There is no such thing as a Stupid Question!

Don't be embarrassed of your curiosity; everyone has questions that they may feel uncomfortable asking certain people, so this place gives you a nice area not to be judged about asking it. Everyone here is willing to help.


Reminder that the rules for lemmy.ca still apply!


Thanks for reading all of this, even if you didn't read all of this, and your eye started somewhere else, have a watermelon slice ๐Ÿ‰.

Oh yes, it makes them jump and fly but nobody gets hurt. Mourning doves and finches are apparently the best for pouncing at. The squirrels (2 I think, but only ever one at a time so it's hard to be sure) and the Band-tailed Pigeons we call Big Bird and Mrs Big Bird are too large, and juncoes aren't scared. Hummingbirds don't trigger the impulse for her, but I like them so I keep sugar stocked even though I'm on keto.
