There’s lots of activity at the feeder these days. I do have to get outside to fill the feeder, but viewing the birds is done as I wash dishes at the kitchen window.
A whole extended family of mourning doves showed up for breakfast a few days ago. Then a bluejay or two arrived…
to be shooed off by a visiting squirrel.
Then it was the cardinal’s turn.
All the while at the suet feeder, the woodpeckers dined…
until this fellow arrived for his dinner.
And that was the end of the woodpecker.
With no enemies, this little Cooper’s hawk took his time over his supper, and all that was left was a scattering of feathers.
