I'm so excited. There was a Mockingbird in the yard, and at the feeder, this morning. He wasn't a very big one, either, but he managed to run off 3 of the Red-winged blackbirds, and they don't seem to scare off that easy. I had just decided to get one of those fruit, jelly and mealworm feeders, although I haven't yet. Now I will have to hustle up on that.
Congratulations!! That's wonderful. I adore them too. I find it funny how they sometimes run off other birds. I saw one last year doing this and it wasn't even at feeders he ate at. What I found funny is that he only did it sometimes.
Good morning all.
I am exited for you.I wish I had some chipmunks in my yard,
they are such adorable little critters.
