Burkwood Viburnum "Mohawk"

As mentioned in my previous post,
I located the original landscaping blueprint.
This is a Burkwood Viburnum "Mohawk."
Read about it here.

Its aroma is heady!

The flowers are gorgeous!
And the birds love it!
They also love it in the Winter as it's a "hideaway"
and roost for those visiting the birdfeeders. :-)
(That's where I can get great photos,
right through the front door!)

And I can't just end this post...
I should, but I won't.
This is what happened
around here this morning!

With my 3x magnification, this
is the best I could do... I've had
two Baltimore Orioles here these
past two days!
AND this morning, there was also an Indigo Bunting picking through the fallen seeds with the other ground birds. Yea!

Now, you'll have to suffer through my "blow-by-blow" description, as I was taking this video while on the telephone with my dad. This is the Yankee "Flipper" feeder our daughter and son-in-law gave us for Christmas. It's also the closest we've gotten, so far, to see how it deals with squirrels. I hope to post an update before too long! (But, that means I have to catch a squirrel in action!) ;-)
