1:00 AM – We converted the water bowl on the deck to a platforms feeder (it’s intended use). The birds liked it, none so much as the Cardinals. And of course, the Squirrels.


For some reason this Raccoon wasn’t impressed with the new set up. Maybe the feed mix wasn’t to his liking. He didn’t have much luck with the Squirrel Buster feeder.

1:00 AM – We’re seeing some Rose Breasted Grosbeaks around the yard. The brownish yellow ones, with plenty of stripes, are females. The ones with black patches on their wings, and slightly rosy breasts, are immature males. We haven’t seen any adult males yet. It’s easy to recognize them, due to the vivid, distinct coloring.


Busy time at the feeder. The visitors include Carolina Chickadees, Tufted Titmouse, Cardinal, White Breasted Nuthatch and probably more that I missed.
