Oh birds, they come in colors everywhere! 🌈🐦
Each of our feathered neighbors brings its own song and personality, and together they paint the farm in a rainbow of color.
Whether it is a goose peeking out of the hayfield, a goldfinch snacking on sunflower seeds, or pelicans soaring overhead, we are grateful for the beauty and life they add to Main Stay.
Swipe to meet just a FEW of the birds who have stopped by Main Stay or made the farm their home.
