I'm continuing to try the trail camera in different locations. My season of putting out the bird feeder is coming to a close. Once the trees fill I can't see it as well plus it attracts birds I really don't want (like Common Grackles and various sparrows). So I thought I would try to move the camera a bit closer to the feeder to see what that would look like. I tried close-ups last year in my front tree with American Goldfinch but this camera is much better. It was supposed to be sunny which always helps pick up the markings on a bird but this day was a little overcast so I may need to try again. Still it was fun to see the activity on the feeder.
I will try to group by bird type. It was also hard to choose the images to post so you'll see quite a few here.
First, here is the vantage point...
Making sure I have it set up the way I want it...
You can see it doesn't take long for birds to jump on (look at Russell's back feet)
Black-capped Chickadees
