Feeding Wild Birds

[CapricornFarm]

The chickadees are the first to demand that the feeders be filled.

I guess I had better get busy.

And this is why I drive especially careful this time of year: As I came home from the club I saw a large buck running into the East edge of my property. I pulled in slowly and noticed a spike and a 5 point buck standing to the left. Suddenly the larger 7 point buck came running towards the drive. Huffing and puffing, I thought he was chasing the other two, but he fully ignored them. Came racing past my truck so close that I could have reached out and touched him. I did not see a doe, but I know what he had on his mind.

I haven't seen one Cardinal or Blue Jay since March anywhere. We used to see them all summer getting rocks on the sides of the road, but the county keeps spraying weed poison now on those rocks.
I have never had Black Capped Chickadees here and a few of them have been regularly visiting my feeders for the last couple months.
My woodpeckers showed back up this week at the feeders.
Not one Wren this summer either.
I was so busy I didn't notice it at first until @sourland brought it up....

I wish, but I'm not even seeing them.

A lot of the migratory birds have left, but I'm not seeing Chickadees, Nuthatches, Cardinals, Blue Jays -----------

That's because they all migrated down here!!! I have around 50 different male Cardinals, a few Chickadees, Waxwings, and Flickers coming into the feeding station.

I have some Nuthatches, Chickadees and some woodpeckers. A lot of grey squirrels.
