Who do you see at YOUR bird feeder?

We have many birds.

No cardinals, much to my dismay.
Wild turkey needs some grooming!
Lots of squirrels!







Nuthatch, blue jay, pileated woodpecker, mourning doves, chickadee, wild turkey, deer and goldfinches. Of course, the rabbits love feeding there in the night time!
mourning dove and red squirrel!

In fact, last year I wanted to do an explanation, with signage, to let the critters know who should feed from which feeder.
It didn't work. Too short an attention span!


Yes, the turkeys jumped ONTO the feeder. They couldn't figure out how to get at the food.

Great post and photos of your feeder birds. I would love to see a Pileated at my feeders. You do have some great birds there.

I'm so jealous of your Pileated Woodpecker! I don't get any of those at the feeders. You have a great variety of birds and animals! Love the photos!

i gave up the birdfeeders a few years ago because the squirrels were just gorging themselves and leaving nothing for the birds!

Sadly, we had to remove our bird feeders because of a rat problem! I still have the suet feeders out and the thistle sock, since the rats don't seem to be interested in those. I enjoyed your photos, and the video.

Great shots, Jenn. Those turkeys are such turkeys, aren't they?
Still very sad to see the picture of "Sarge" on your sidebar. I was sure hoping he'd be found.

You have a massive feeder system. You live in the critter's habitat. We get 6 standards all winter...black called chickadee, boreal chickadee, red breasted nuthatch, white breasted nuthatch, house finch, house sparrow.

I love that last shot with the deer apparently staring you down!

Our visitors don't vary much, lots of Chickadees, a few Oregon Juncos and one Steller's Blue Jay. - Margy

I'm afraid if I had all those gorgeous creatures visiting our back yard, I'd never get anything done but feeding, observing, and photographing them! Lovely distractions! ;-)
