They don't. Male birds are more colourful. Well, Duh, I guess living in northern Michigan for almost forty years and having a continuously-filled, self-built bird feeder didn't teach me anything. Thanks for the reminder.

We feed them too. We love watching them. We have cardinals, tufted titmice, downy woodpeckers, goldfinch, red-bellied woodpeckers, purple finches, bluejays, nuthatches, chickadees, sparrows and juncos coming on to our deck in winter. We have other birds that don’t come to the deck or that are only here in the warm months: hairy woodpeckers, pileated woodpeckers, great barred owls, redtail hawks, sharp-shinned hawks, crows, rose-breasted grosbeaks, baltimore orioles, scarlet tanagers, blue herons, canada gueese, ruby throated hummingbirds, carolina wrens, phoebes, eastern towhee, cedar waxwings and wild turkeys.
