3:20 AM – We don’t know too much about the Dark-eyed Juncos. Wwe’ve only seen them with the other birds a few times. Today we found out they can be a little aggressive, at least toward Sparrows. We’re not sure they’d try this with a Cardinal.

Red-bellied Woodpecker is heavy enough to partially activate the anti-squirrel mechanism.  He has to approach the feeding port sideways to fit his head/beak in. The Red-bellied is the biggest local resident bird that visits the hanging feeders – the Doves stick to the platform.
