More Relaxed Today

The birds seemed to be in a much better mood today and the cam got some nice shots.

Ever wonder how long it takes for the birds to start feeding once I begin filling feeders? About as long as it takes me to walk from the tray feeder to the back feeder, apparently.

It doesn't take much longer for wave after wave to head down and pick out their favorite treats.

This adult female Red-winged Blackbird was very kind to pose so still. They are usually so twitchy they end up as a blur and they take off as soon as anyone heads outside.

So, it is also nice to have another good shot of this year's new male Red-winged Blackbird hanging out and feeding.

I have actually saw a few young females stopping by and the whole family makes visits sometimes in one big group before heading back to the wetlands down the street.
