carpingdiem, Sunset tonight was at 846pm and that is exactly when the male summer tanager came to the jelly feeder. The house finch also likes jelly, but will visit it only in the early evening. And an unwanted visitor was eyeing the jelly feeder, too. #birds #birding #birdsofmastodon #birdphotography #raccoon #nature #tanager #finch
A male house finch (red streaks on head, rest of body brown and beige) likes the jelly also.
A raccoon spent a few hours in the tree nearest the jelly feeder, waiting for night so it could grab the contents. Hubby foiled its nefarious plan by taking the feeder in soon after sunset.
