Tree/bush id

[RebelSS]

Can anyone tell me what type of bush or tree these come from? Red-poll finches are packing them into my hanging planters, trying to make a nest. Strip of tinfoil on some mono fish line hung above planters and blowing around seems to be working so far....

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Just figured it out. Green ash from my neighbor's tree. They sure are packing them around a lot, just saw one with a beak full of them.

And the foil strip blowing around worked....birds won't come near them.

 we have had robins make nests in some of the hanging plants at times. now they make them on the underside frame of the deck. I let them nest wherever they like. as long as there an insect eating machine they are welcome.

I actually would like to put up a bat house..............but momma aint to hip about it. seen a few last week........didn't tell her though!

I have a maple that drops like a bazzilion helicoptors. shop vaced them outta my rocks and ended up with a 40 lb dog food bag 3/4 full.
