Description from Beady Little Eyes: Watching the Orchard Orioles eating oranges at the feeder (females are the color of the oranges) - then 2 male red winged blackbirds showed up (the older was puffing out his wings to show the other his manliness -great flash of red). Then 3 Rose Breasted Grosbeaks 1 M & 2 F (female chased the male from the feeder), 2 Mourning Doves, a Chickadee - a Blue Jay, a Robin and a partridge in a pear tree (Ha).So beautiful. Then my lovely hens showed up.

Beady Little Eyes says:Thanks all. Melody – yesterday my husband filled the feeder with seeds and a gray squirrel climbed up and sat inside eating for 1/2 hour! Little piggy.

Chicky Red-haired Grammy says:Congrats on this POD! The squirrel’s get into one of our feeders and gorge themselves on sunflower seeds. I send our dogs outside to scare those Greedy Guts away.
