I’ve been sitting at my sliding glass door in recent days waiting for my feathered friends to come for a meal. They’ve all been around, as we have had cold temperatures and yes, even snow!
My little Downy Woodpecker female in the snow, having a snack!
They seem to be getting used to me now, as they often come to feed when I am outside. They allow me to get as close as three feet of the feeders before flying off.
And since I am getting more chances and have become more patient I am getting better pictures of my birdies!
This is a male Hairy Woodpecker. He’s quite an eater. He will peck away at the suet like he was working on a tree!
A Blue Jay flew in (I suspect this is a male) and after having words with the Hairy Woodpecker, there was a little standoff, before the Woodpecker flew away!
And here is Blue Jay. He is quite a character. If I am outside putting up the suet he will sort of screech at me to hurry up!
Nice photos. I think the birds will keep you entertained with their antics.
Birds are so relaxing
