Birds at the feeder

I really need to get away from home more, but in the meantime......

From this morning and yesterday

If I had birds like that visiting my home, I would stay put! Lovely set of images.

Nice set of shots, that first one is stunning apart from that darn twig.

Very Nice especially the first

Exceptional! Taken with the G9 no doubt.

Thanks All! No G9 here for these, though I have taken some cool feeder action time lapse video with it.

Awesome images, I love the vibrance and the Dove/in-flight capture is cool too.

It would be tough to leave home with such pretty birds coming around. Nice shots! Tell me what kind of feed that is, I would love to get one for here. That corn looks good enough to eat....heh...heh.

That corn and sunflower cube is sold as a squirrel feeder. I buy them at Lowe's home supply store, home Depot has them too.

Your birds won't stray too far from "home" with that buffet you are offering... all are pretty images, but the female cardinal is my favorite.

Very nice shots. Is that wren chasing away the dove? LOL

Yes, it's funny, there are two Carolina Wrens. When they want a turn on the feeder, they will drive the doves away. Wish I could get a shot of them working together.

Wrens aren't really seed eaters. You might want to make sure they have suet to eat.

Nice shots

There are three blocks of suet within 15 feet of that seed block and the wrens spend much more time on that block. Maybe they like the binder used to hold the seeds together.
