carpingdiem, It was a beautiful sunny day, but cold. Tonight the temperature will fall to 26F/-4C. Luckily, no snow is in the forecast. Just the usual suspects at the feeders today. #birds #birding #birdsofmastodon #birdphotography #nature #HoosierMast #woodpecker #goldfinch #bluebird
This male black and white downy woodpecker is on the alert. He probably saw another male approaching.
The big flock of bluebirds has dispersed. 1 or 2 male bluebirds have staked out territory around the feeders and are chasing all the others away. Here, a single male bluebird has claimed the mealworm feeder as his.
