1:00 AM – Here’s some platform feeder drama. We start with a Brown Thrasher running off a Blue Jay. It took just seconds, so it’s shown in slow motion. After the Thrasher loses interest, the Doves move in. Notice the Blue Jay coming back to see if he coast is clear. I used to think Jays were tough and aggressive, but not anymore. Finally, stay tuned, and turn your volume on, to see a Dove swelling his chest to call.
Dark-eyed Junco scratching through the empty husks.
Finally, a Cardinal having breakfast in the dark. The video was taken at 6:41 AM, just before light.
