If you fill it, they will come.
I thought they were doing a coin toss for Thanksgiving this year...Fortunately, I speak turkey, so it was easy to interpret the context of the stand-off...

I need to ID that bird(first two pics) and pull screen off window to get better pics. So far I have seen a finch, female cardinal, blue bird, sparrows, and another unknown. I need to read up and look at pics of birds found in Ohio to ID the two unknown birds.
Blue bird, red bellied woodpecker, hairy woodpecker(2 pics)
I need to improve my photo skillz (ipad mini6).View attachment 33852View attachment 33854View attachment 33853

Im hooked and went to Tractor Supply Company today and bought some more birdseed and another feeder. I didnt get home until after dark and both my feeders were empty, but the suet is still there. I too was having a difficult time determining if that was a downy woodpecker or hairy woodpecker and went hairy bc it said downy was 1 oz and hairy 1-3 and this looked like it weighed more than an ounce.😁
Thanks for the photo tip and putting up with my poor pics, Im using an ipad mini and not so good(in case you havent noticed🤣). I may buy a camera if that will help me take better pics.
These will be going up shortly. I have used the one on the left before and birds used it as well, my friend gave me the middle one recently, and I picked the one on the right up at a thrift a while back but am not sure what it is for as it seems rather large. I will also be getting some hummingbird feeders.

Look at the bills. A downy's bill is small and fine; a hairy's is bigger and more robust.Im hooked and went to Tractor Supply Company today and bought some more birdseed and another feeder.

Yup, you're in their tour guidebook now. Five stars!It seemed like the feeders got emptied quick the other day. I need to raise everything and put the ground feeder in the tree. One of the suet holders was on the ground and away from its spot when I got home today.View attachment 33978View attachment 33979View attachment 33982
