Bird of Ponds and Parks
The grackle is such an underrated bird. One of my faves.
This female red-bellied woodpecker has been a constant fixture at the bird buddy lately. She’s got a distinct set of growths on her toes that make her identifiable. They appear to not be hindering her life because she’s been around so often, but a first for me to see something like this on a bird at a feeder.
Back with a special appearance from two of my favorite woodpeckers.
A winning combo: the catbird returns and then a male red bellied woodpecker joins the party!
My personal fave is back now that the suet ball feeder is refilled. A quick but cute visit from a grey catbird.
Grack-tastic! Two male grackles showed up at the feeder today, I love how inquisitive these guys are.
An early visit from the male cardinal, about midway though a catbird flys into the platform feeder in the background. The surprise visitor is somewhat unidentified, either a female cardinal or one of the shy juveniles that is hanging around but hasn’t made an official visit to the bird buddy yet!
Good morning from the bird buddy! This red bellied woodpecker stopped by for some snacks while a female cardinal perused the platform feeder in the background.
I can’t help but feel like his pointed look in the beginning at the pool enclosure is a question on when a bird bath will be opening up in addition the the bird feeders. Stick around for a surprise visitor!
Such a busy morning at the bird feeders! The video starts with a male and female cardinal at the bird buddy while a catbird hangs out at the platform. Once the cardinals are gone, a grackle claims his spot at the platform feeder after shooing away the catbird.
Another three in one! Staring with a male painted bunting on the suet feeder, a gray cat bird, and then a common grackle at the platform feeder! It’s so amazing to see who shows up in my backyard!!!
A three in one! A female cardinal at the bird buddy, a red bellied woodpecker at the platform feeder behind and then at about 1:15 a little yellow bird flits by the platform feeder but doesn’t stop.
Another new visitor: a grey catbird! I love seeing these guys, I think they’re understated but so cute!
Talk about a busy morning at the bird feeder! After having the feeder out since January of this year, all it took was the suet ball feeder out for a week to finally have a woodpecker visit! This male red bellied woodpecker made a short stop but the bird buddy got some lovely photos.
Serenading the morning before hitting up the bird buddy for some snacks.
Talk about knowing how to find your light! A lovely midday visit from the female northern cardinal.
A candidate for the worst birder pic. You may not believe it but there were two red bellied woodpeckers on this Hong Kong orchid. It was lovely to see in person but given this photo, you’ll just have to trust me.
Behind the scenes for the bird buddy! Usually if the birds see humans in the yard they don’t stop at the feeder but this female cardinal did.
What a treat! A common grackle decided to briefly visit the bird buddy while I was outside with the dogs. I caught a bit of video (that is just stellar on keeping the bird in frame) and got some quick photos before he headed out.
The suet feeder attachment arrived and then both cardinals had to check it out!
Blink and you’ll miss them! A very abbreviated blue jay visit to start the day.
A short visit from the crowd favorite: a common grackle!
A particularly cone-headed cardinal visit today!
Messy beak Monday! A lovely visit from the neighborhood lady cardinal.
A busy morning at the bird feeder! Two male common grackles show up early in the video follows by an appearance from a female cardinal. I love being able to see the size difference between the two species.
When you’re trying to subtly find the chip with the most guac on the shared plate of nachos.
A lovely visit from our cardinal friend this afternoon!
A quick two for one visit from the family of cardinals!
Just a quick blue jay visit to brighten up your Wednesday afternoon!
