Feeder birds
After we filled up the feeders, the parade started soon.
Groups of 2 & 3 visitors at a time nabbed a few seeds and gave their place to the waiting multitudes, who arrived from surrounding trees. This was not entirely peaceful, including disagreements about the 'pecking order.'
I wouldn't have thought that we'd have so many Carolina Chickadees, Tufted Titmice, White-breasted Nuthatches, Northern Cardinals, and who knows what else living in the woods behind our small mountain house.
It was definitely a parade.

I am anxious to see all the different birds we will have at the lake. Will have to look up the gnatcatcher.
ReplyDeleteActually what I meant to write was White-breasted Nuthatches. But, blue-gray gnatcatchers are one of the early spring arrivals in our eastern forests, quite cool, too.
