The Rose Breasted Grosbeak for comparison (and some others from the feeder)...

I love the red headed woodpecker! We had one when we moved here over 20 years ago, but he has since disappeared.
I have had rose breasted grosbeaks here for the last week. All the others at your feeders are regulars at mine as well.

I used to love seeing cardinals. We don’t have them here.

Speaking of hungry - how do these Grosbeaks taste?

I think I know what Smudge is thinking. It has to do with cutural exchange, close quarters and “getting to know birdie”.

Whatever it is, it’s pinin’ for the fjords.

I had this same bird the last two years at early spring - they amazingly go for the hummingbird feeders (I use tube-type ones) and try to get the nectar - don’t know if they leaarned this by watching my hummingbirds, or if it’s a natural thing for them but was quite surprised to see them try to hover and sip ( with lots of repeated tries)

Here's a Baltimore Oriole. Your bird is not an oriole.

You have to know these things when you’re a king, you know.

You appear to know your stuff. What are the two birds on the left and right in photo #1? I’ve never been able to find them in a book, and I see them in the central Midwest all the time (N. Illinois, S. Michigan, etc.).

“That bird is a California Oriole.”
Sure looks like it. I had a visit from a little owl the other day. He dived into the yard (mid day) after a snake about 4 ft.long. Then he just sat on a low branch while I talked to him for about 15 minutes.
