whether you want it or not...
Just a sampling. The birds were frequenting the feeder all day long. No squirrel (or Bigfoot) sightings all day. The Downy woodpecker (Zsa Zsa) started things off. Then a House Sparrow made an appearance. They sure are prettier up close (as opposed to flying overhead and dropping cargo on your windshield). The White-breasted nuthatch (cyrano de bergerac) holds a seed high overhead as it appears to be listening to the neighbor's dog barking. Black-capped chicadees are on the light weight division billing, and they stick and move like Sugar Ray Leonard, hitting the feeder and zipping away in a blink . A Blue Jay (I've named Elwood) checks in again. The Tufted titice (Johnny Bravos) like to stay awhile, showing off their backside feathers to the camera (or maybe self conscious chewers?) At some point, a smaller red colored House Finch (Opie) waits patiently on the front rail for the nuthatch to finish its meal. How nice! The bigger finch is such a messy eater - like a prisoner not worried about ettiquette. The Northern cardinal (Red Skelton) finishes the day's festivities. What is he clicking about? I believe he also started off the day around dawn but I didn't include here (too dark). That's it! I've already had a few new species hits this morning as I upload this video. Until then...
