"Angel" Baby Robins - Fledgling Flees the Nest
Finally captured a fledgling "Angel" Baby Robin in the act of fleeing the nest. Originally there were three, but one disappeared when a tornado hit nearby (Thank God we were spared!) The small green object between the nest and the "Angel" is a wren house that mom and dad robin pushed over to make room for their nest (no wrens at home). I did not notice the fledgling flew back into my camera's view and landed on the red awning of my neighbor's glider, or I would have continued videoing.

A February, 2021, deep snow in the Midwest spawned another "Winter Birds' Feeding Frenzy," for me, my third.

Return of the "Angel" Baby Robins
Переглядів 3,1 тис.4 роки тому
After four years, the robins returned and built a nest in my planter just outside my kitchen window, affording me another wonderful, up close and personal opportunity to observe and capture them hatching and growing, and to see the loving care demonstrated by mom and dad in continuously feeding and caring for them. Here are a few of the highlights of their "angelic" performance.
May Day Melee & Mayhem at the Bird Feeders
Переглядів 2,2 тис.4 роки тому
This May 1st capture gives "May Day" new meaning. As Blue Jays try to establish a "pecking order," the Hairy Woodpecker and the Red-headed Woodpecker have other thoughts. "Feathers fly" as the jays learn these woodpeckers know a thing or two about "pecking!" And when Rose-breasted Grosbeaks and Baltimore Orioles (and more) flock to the melee, the Jays are ready to sound the alarm, "May Day, May...
Hand-feeding Darling Red-breasted Nuthatches!

I recently posted my humorous pursuit of hand-feeding red-breasted nuthatches, newly arrived at my feeders. Now I try for a more up close and personal view, replete with their darling little chirps! Be sure to turn up your volume. At :44 one flies in to my hand before I extended it, then quickly darts back to the shepherd's hook, per protocol, to patiently await my slow recovery. LOL.

    This summer I had two cardinals at my feeder along with several bluejays. The cardinals only came by when the jays were not there but I also noticed I have zero small birds this fall when I use to have many all year round. The pair of cardinals have left but the jays are still around. I wonder if they drove the small birds away.

My husband said he has seen some a long time ago in a neighbor's yard across the street. I've bought yellow colored finch feeders for thistle and finch socks and I never seen finches feeding on them. Then the socks just get moldy from the rain and have to be discarded. Any advise on how to get yellow finches? We do however have Orioles, cardinals, woodpeckers, red finches, hummingbirds, chickadees, titmouses, catbirds, and once in a great while a red chested grossbeak. Would sure like to see some yellow finches though.

    Cool video. This is the first year I've fed orioles grape jelly, only nectar, and I've never seen so many orioles. Ive been having to refill the jelly so often. I found a little blue square bird hanging tray at Amazon that i put the jelly in and it works well. The woodpeckers feed from my hummingbird feeders too. Rarely do i see a grossbeak. I used to feed the bluejays peanuts, but found they love the black sunflowers. Nice video. I was surprised by the robin too!
