1:35 AM – Retro Sunday, once again. But first, something a little different. Here’s a video of a Carolina Wren at the mealworm feeder, published several days ago. Here it is again, but now with a soundtrack, another original composition.
This one is from January, 2017. Its a very interesting video that demonstrates how alert (and quick) the sparrows are. Four of them are sitting in the feeder. Suddenly they all fly away. Within a second a hickory nut falls from the branches above and lands in the feeder. It seems no matter how intently the birds are hogging down, they’re still paying attention to their surroundings. If you’re potential hawk-food, I guess that’s a good idea.
