Prospect February 4th

First a Thank you to Heidi Clevens for her donation of 40 lbs of black sunflower seed received today..The birds are really eating up the seed  but worth the enjoyment to many who come to see these winter species. So, I am much appreciated to all for donations , cash or actual seed for the birds.
