Congratulations on some very gorgeous birds, Sunshine. I spent an hour on my covered front porch watching birds at the feeders. We had cardinals, bluejays, black-capped chickadees, at least one cedar waxwing, several tufted titmice, tiny little brown birds with a slight build, a goldfinch, sparrows, and a painted bunting whose coloration was quite startling. They liked the fruit and nut food. I put it at the bottom and regular chow at the top for songbirds. I heard, but did not see an owl, warblers of several types. Some birds are too shy to visit when I'm out on the porch, but I saw a yellow-bellied sapsucker from inside the house at the south side feeder. He was gorgeous and knew it, but kept his visit short and sweet. I think their particular need is protein, supplemented by a few easy seeds. There were so many birds chattering at one point, the feeders that were full today will be empty tomorrow.
I had to take these through a screen that had increasing amounts of sunlight on it. I couldn't close the screen or they would have flown away.
I have had a variety of birds live in my bird house over the years. This is the first time they have been blue. I hope they will be very happy there~!
Not to mention the other birds that love them--especially cardinals and jays. And every type of bird I have no clue what their names are.
