The grosbeaks are back

I had started to see the pine grosbeaks in some of our crab apple and ornamental apple trees.  Once I picked up the the new birdseed, we’ve started to see them at the feeder.  Especially this lovely couple.

She looks a bit perplexed.

She was also much harder to get pictures of!  The male, on the other hand, was more co-operative.

Bird Feeder – another hunter!

Beep Beep has discovered she can climb the bird feeder, too!

At one point, a bird landed on the top of the hanging feeder.

She went for it.

She barely managed to catch herself and get back up on the platform instead of falling to the ground. :-D

Bird Feeder – mighty hunter!

Doom Guy entertained us on the bird feeder again, not long ago.

He was trying to watch all of the birds, all at once! :-D

They all seem to try for the hanging feeder.  Like they refuse to accept that it will move, every time. :-D
