At the Feeders and in the Trees - Week 2

I am happy to see that the Carolina Wren has been visiting my feeders again.



The white eyebrow stripe helps to identify him. 



His tail is usually cocked upward. 




House Sparrows have also been spotted at the feeders. It doesn't seem to bother him that a Downy Woodpecker is on the other side of the suet feeder.


I have noticed that the Downy will let me walk out on the deck, which is right beside the feeders, and doesn't fly off. 



The House Sparrow doesn't let me get chose at all. I'm shooting this pic from the other side of my sliding door to the deck. 






In the next couple of photos, you can see how much larger the Red-bellied Woodpecker is than the Downy. 





I don't see them on the feeder at the same time, usually the Downy waits for the Red-bellied to leave. Sometimes he waits on a nearby branch for his turn.



Thanks for stopping by - Judy.

  1. The Carolina Wren is one of my favorite birds. Having lived up north and the Southwest, I had little contact with the species until moving to Florida.

  14. I have a feeder and i have these small brown birds that i can't identify. I think they are either finches or sparrows. Could you try to get some pics of both and tell me to spot them? Thank you. I am new at bird watching.
