1:00 AM – We don’t get many visits from Ground Squirrels up on the rail feeders. This one is very wary. When he hear/sees/senses some threat he freezes, and stays that way:
It’s true that the early bird gets the worm, in this case, a Cardinal at 4:00AM and some mealworms:
More mealworm feeder action – a Chickadee isn’t intimidated by the Cardinal:
1:00 AM – This Red-wing is choosy about her peanuts.
Cute little Chickadee cracking seeds.
Life on the peanut rail:
1:00AM – Lots of traffic on the mealworm feeder. This Chickadee is a big fan:
Brown Headed Cowbirds hang out with the Red-winged Blackbirds:
Here’s a hungry squirrel. As if there were any other kind.
1:00 AM – One of the Red-winged Blackbirds in slow motion:
The Yellow Rumped Warblers are frequent visitors, but they don’t get much video time.
Titmouse and Chickadee – small frequent visitors that seem to get along fine, unlike the Cardinals, Doves, Finches and others:
1:00 AM – Brown Headed Cowbird on the rail, a nice closeup:
Chickadee and Titmouse from the old trailcam
Pine Warbler and a Purple Finch:
1:00 AM – Here’s a flock of Finches with what looks like a Goldfinch in the middle. It’s hard for me to tell the difference between the Yellow Warbler and the Goldfinch, but I’m calling this a Goldie:
Some Pine Warblers and a Chickadee:
1:00 AM – Cardinal and friend, the usual crowd:
Chickadee feasting:
Agile raccoons, or maybe just one, climbing over our Railcams.
1:00 AM – Mrs. Cardinal:
Pine Warblers and a Chickadee:
1:00 AM – Carolina Wren on the rail:
Chickadee never gives up:
Everyone loves peanuts on the rail. Here’s a double dose of Raccoons making a midnight run:
1:00 AM – Traffic on the TrailCam. When it’s working, we get some decent videos:
Another video of the recent Brown Headed Cowbird visit. Not an enormous wave of birds like a few years ago.
