If you enjoy this as much as I did, then tell a friend and go back again.
I went back two weeks later and took my daughter so she could feed the birds.

Feeding the birds

Some people are told to sit down closer to the birds eating off the ground outside.
They are given some seeds in the palm of their hand and told to sit and wait.
Soon a bird will perch on your hand and eat the seeds you are holding.

Feeding hummingird

The house has an open porch that has several chairs. You are asked to have a seat.
Then you are handed a small bottle of sugar water and told to stick your finger out for a perch, then sit very still.
Soon a hummingbird will fly in, sit on your finder, and drink out of the bottle.

Rockland Bird Feeding Station: Feed the birds, Anchovy

 kyoub Says:  At one time this was a guesthousebut after the failing health of the owner, they no longer take guests for the night.Now it is just a place to go, have a seat, be very quiet and the birds will fly in to where you are and you can feed them.

Getting gas

If you are going here on your own, you will need to have a car.
It is located out in the country.
If you are not with a tour group or have your own transportation, then it will be a long walk.

Bird at feeder

Clothing/Shoes/Weather Gear: Wear good walking shoes and a cap for the tour.

Toiletries and Medical Supplies: Put on the mosquito repellent before you go for a walk. You will get plenty of bites if you forget.

Photo Equipment: Take your camera and film or memory card.

Miscellaneous: Take some water to drink because there is nothing for sale there.
