Backyard bird watching

[Raven]

when i find these huge wood eating grubs
as i split wood...
i take them and put them right into the log feeder
out on the back deck




I waited like 5 minutes thinking a woodpecker was gonna get happy
then a titmouse grabbed it (the worm) and flew off before i could snap a pic. lol
he was a little faster than the man with the camera today

Love that feeder. Those grubs would make tasty looking morsels for fresh water fishing.

years ago i used to get a flock of evening grosbecks at the feeders. I havn't seen any in the past few years. any of you folks still get them?

Still haven't been quick enough to get a pic of the hawk.

I seem to be having a grackle invasion the last two weeks.Seems kinda early for grackles?

Geez, i haven't seen grossbeaks in years. When i was a kid the rose breasted grossbeak was quite common. Did have a flock of cedar waxwings at the grabapple tree early last spring for a few days.
We have 9 Bald Eagles wintering over at the resivoir this year. Something to see them swoop down over the open water.

i havent seem for a long long time

perhaps allot of their favorite habitat has been converted to track homes...
or as you call them here, neighborhoods.... and if i remember correctly they are berry eaters.
