I have many red-winged blackbirds in my yard right now, but this was a first for me. It's a lifer and yard bird #51! I had just enough time to fire off a few shots (through the patio door glass) before he flew off.

Here's the new feeder station I put up recently. I got tired of all the different poles all around the yard, so consolidated them into something that's more attractive.

Thanks! I just ordered a netcam to put out on the feeder so I'll be able to watch the feeders all day. Should have it up next week.
