The feeders have been a hub of activity today.
Who doesn't love to see, and hear, a pretty Blue Jay.
At times it was standing room only on the feeder platform.
Once the perfect seed is selected, a suitable branch is chosen for the nutcracking work.
They work hard to get to the meat of the matter inside the hard sunflower seed shell.
There was a fair amount of action on the suet blocks as well.
There is some dispute about the ownership of said suet block.
Litigation to follow I'm sure.
This male pileated woodpecker hung around off and on for most of the day.
It was a blustery, cold day, perfect for a suet snack.
That red 'lip stick' is the easy way to tell that this is a male.
On the All About Birds website, it mentions the size similarity between the Pileated Woodpecker and the American Crow. I got to observe that up close today.
