Unknown ID: Mockingbird! Wait until they nest in your area, you want some all night noise....
Nice that the birds, and a good variety, finally found your feeding stations.
Thanks for the ID.
Yeah, I'm happy to finally have some variety. Getting a bunch of Chickadees, Titmice (titmouses?), nuthatches and the goldfinches.
Only saw that Mockingbird once. I can only convince the Cardinal over on rare occasion by throwing seed onto the snowy ledge (what you saw in the picture). Then, I get a dozen sparrows and finally the Cardinal will stop by for a few minutes here and there eating thistle and none of the other seeds.
I put up the feed house that I posted pictures of a few weeks ago with some quality seed, but no love over there by the Cards.
Wow! Squirrel-Kill porn! Why didn't someone tell me about this thread earlier. I've got an idea for an "electric bird feeder" that will make ol' sparky at San Quentin look like child's play.
Three-fourths of the Earth's surface is water, and one-fourth is land. It is quite clear that the good Lord intended us to spend triple the amount of time fishing as taking care of the lawn.
Mocking birds make nests low to the ground
and unfortunately snakes often find their babies and eat them
which has happened to me at a previous residence
unfortunately i have no mocking birds here
and i don't mind listening to them sing all night long
there's nothing finer than sitting outside listening
on a breezy summer night
As for Squirrels
i'm at war because one was sitting on my jerry jug today
chewing on the pouring tube and i am very pissed off now
AND....they all shined on the have a heart trap too
You can buy or build the best "squirrel-proof" feeder in the world, only to have a furry little bastige render it obsolete in seconds.
They have to be one of the smartest rodents because they can be solitary or work as a group.
Damn, if they ever get REALLY organized, they'll probably pick the lock to our shed and take all the seed they want!

What squirrels have to be the dumbest..take this guy for example, why go through all the obstacles when he just could have climbed the pole supporting the feeder?
Given the diversity of the human species, there is no “normal” human genome sequence. We are all mutants.

Can I be your beta test site, please. I can power the contraption with solar power!
