I enjoy maintaining a birdfeeder. There's good karma in feeding the hungry, especially in winter.
To be clear, I don't tolerate rodents - it's one of those feeder that slides down to keep House-Eaters (squirrels) from feeding. Anyways.
Getting lots of desirable birds- cardinals, etc. and I feel for the mourning doves - too fat to land, so they clean up what falls.
Added safflower seed last week and there's been an explosion in feeding - as you'll see.
Looks like the Circle of Life took place yesterday while I was at work ...
Unsure who got killed. No corpse to be found!
But I have identified a suspect:
Looked like Mutual of Omaha Wild Kingdom! The hawk is back!
I guess "bird feeder" can also mean, "bird-feeder for predators."
Maybe not surprisingly, no takers this morning at breakfast ... they probably think I set them up!
