Blue finally lands on the feeder and takes a look.
He sees it's filled with peanuts in the shell and grabs one.
...but there is no sticking around.
...but there is no sticking around. As soon as he has the peanut, it's lift off!
Throughout the week, the Blue Jays and the squirrels were the biggest customers and were really fun to watch. But...the Tufted Titmouse is hanging around more and more and loves the peanuts! Even a Carolina Wren dropped in for a visit, but he didn't take a nut. The feeder is a really fun addition to the backyard, and we love it. I can't wait until the Red-bellied Woodpeckers start coming to it.
...let's hope Red figures it out too!

Hooray, they figured it out! Interestingly, activity at our peanut feeder has dropped off this week, I'm assuming because the weather has gotten warmer. I'll be interested to see if things pick back up again this weekend as we dip back down into the 20's!
I was so happy when I saw that first blue jay swoop in for a peanut. It will be interesting to see what happens this weekend!
I am just in awe of your bird photographs (as well as the flowers, mushrooms, alpacas, on and on...)! I hope to live to be well over 150 years old, so I can paint many of them- LOL!
