This is what greeted me on Saturday morning: a black-headed grosbeak in the suet feeder, with suet stuck to its beak.
I am amazed at how birds adapt to the feeding situation. The suet has mealworms embedded in it, and insects are what birds are hungry for right now – when insects are not as plentiful as they will be in a couple of weeks.
Of course, grosbeaks are known for this: their ability to crunch the hard shells of seeds. The second grosbeak parked itself in the sunflower feeder.
80 degrees Farenheit and a bathing spa! This is a bird’s dream!
What a handsome fellow in the reflection there!
Ahhhh. Water.
Is it an Angry Bird?
Nope – just a robin in its element.
And robins crack me up when one of them gets into the bird bath.
All done now.
Thank you.
