POV flying straight away from cam at the end was cool, too. ![]()
Do you just throw a hand full of seed and they come running?
Your Videos are great👍
YEs. I put out seed every day. More videos on my YouTube Channel Backyard Birds And Other Natural Phenomenon https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCa8KGWnf_nLzw7ScIrrWB4w
Speaking of Pileated Woodpecker, when I first saw one in flight, I thought it was a Pheasant. Woodpeckers in Europe are tiny ![]()
Wow, I’ve never seen Blue Jays share like that. Around here, they chase away any other bird that attempts to eat “their” seed.
This morning I captured a Northern Cardinal sharing with a Dark Eyed Junco. Then an older Cardinal came along and was not willing to share at all.
Get the deer back ! I’m at war with birds since they ate all my little 3 inch tall lettuce plants all in one day. I plant lettuce every November in my planter boxes and have always had a good crop, not this year.

Aww man. I know the feeling! Earlier today, I found a dead finch at the bottom of my fencing with it’swings stretched out.
My local Blue Jay flock is friendly and helpful. Sometimes, a hawk or falcon will show up since the feeder and yard are a good place to find doves. Usually, a Chickadee or Red-Bellied Woodpecker will give an alarm. Then a team of Blue Jays chases away the raptor. They even have watch posts and use tactics that I have seen repeated. In the Spring, Red-Wing Blackbirds assist in the protection scheme.
Do you own a Bird Feed Factory?
