Probably because we have lots of sparrows, starlings, and mourning doves ourselves. It's fine when they finish their meal, but annoying when they leave half and I have to chase a dog that's found part of a body and have to get it away from them.

We've had several woodpeckers of late as well.

Pretty birds, They are pretty birds for sure....have a few around my place. Once saw one go after a humming bird was pretty neat watching the turns it made trying,very agile, didn't catch it but gave it a pretty good run.

On the side with the most bird feeders. This week they've been making a lot of noise - they might be breeding.

When we were running the farm the adult pair would bring their fledglings to sit on the fence next to the barn in the mornings. When arrived to feed, the birds nesting in the rafters would fly out and the hawks would stoop on them.

Also, when we first bought this place and the fields were all in abandoned corn, red tail hawks would hang out as I went round and round the fields on the tractor mowing down the corn and weeds. As I got to the last lines of stubble, the cotton rats would run out and the hawks ate well. Since we never let the fields get that overgrown again, the red tails moved on to other hunting grounds and the red shoulders moved in.

You are lucky to live in a area with all these cool birds.

Your profile does state where you live so I'll understand if you do not answer.
Even a general location would be great.

It is really cool that you have 'bird cams'. Your pictures are appreciated!


Thanks!

amazing
