It has been a sad season for #hummingbirds so far but look who came today! And to the Allura feeder to boot ❤️ I am livestreaming this camera, and hopefully there will be some more visits coming up.

It is always funny to me how seemingly stunned they look to find nobody at the scene yet hearing all the scolding from the trees. At first I thought this one would take a bath, but nope. It has been very dry here, so maybe it will come back. Such a beautiful bird.

The #Robins started hatching today! Mom and Dad share feeding and diaper duties, and they are such fresh parents that they still seem to be unsure how to do it. You can see Dad bringing some food and Mom wanting to feed it to the baby but then letting him do it when he seemingly insists. She's eating the diaper instead. #birds #birdsofMastodon #nestwatch #birdwatching #babybird #Birdsy #nature #Ostdrossel

The #Bluebird couple has been bringing their babies from brood 1 that they raised in a different spot down to the backyard recently to introduce them to feeders and bath. The female is spending a lot of time in the box but I don’t think she is done laying yet. As of this morning, she has four eggs. Here, first she comes in, then a baby. It is kind of neat to have them here without all the worry during their nesting. #birds #birdsofMastodon #babybird #birdwatching #nature #Birdsy #Ostdrossel

#Babybird season has officially begun. Very early today, the #Grackles brought their first youngster to the pond to explore the water while they were looking for snacks. Sorry for the water stain on the lens but you get a bonus Oriole singing in the back.

I was a bit mopey in the morning because it felt like spring sprung everywhere but here but then the dam burst somewhat (still waiting for the hummers). TT share because it was fun throwing it together like this. #birds #birdsofnorthamerica #birdsofMastodon #springmigration #Orioles #birdwatching #nature #Birdsy #Ostdrossel

I love the morning light on the tree-setup. There was some nice activity this morning and yesterday in the evening.

Fun surprise visitor today - a Northern #Flicker! They are quite large #woodpeckers, and this is a male, as you can tell from his "mustache". I love how feisty he was with the Starlings. And I hope he will return.

It was funny to see how the birds are coping with the ice when this hilarious food fight happened by the tree cam. The #Juncos are having a hard time getting a grip while the Downy #Woodpecker manages quite well. At the end, a Brown #Creeper also shows up.
Link, cause video is too long for an upload.

We are getting hammered with snow today, it looks fabulous outside. And I thought I would share what my treecam setup looks like. Be safe if you have to drive!

I am seeing a lot of ads for "THE AI BIRD FEEDER" and things like that, and I would like to state that I am not using any of these #birdfeeder cameras. For my photos I use a homemade setup with an action camera, and for video and streaming I use #Birdsy cameras. Many of these #feedercams are knockoffs, pricey and not the quality they may promise to be. Don’t spend fortunes on bad products. Companies, I am willing to put your products to the test 🤓
