Beaks at Feeders

Look who's back!!!! The evening grosbeaks winged into town this week. They take over the feeder... and those lads can certainly shovel in the sunflower seeds!

But how handsome they are!  What a joy to have visiting.

The bluejay is a bit put out -- he's had pretty much 'free rein' (except for being booted out of the feeder by the squirrel. that's another story) until the grosbeaks came.  Mrs. Grosbeak is waiting her turn with uncustomary patience.


The woodpecker doesn't care. He's got first dibs on the suet feeder...







And then there is this lot... who are wandering about in the half-flooded pasture and hiking across the lawns - at least until Taffy spots them.
