Another sunny, chilly Spring day full of birds. Also too full of running around town and other distractions. The male red bellied woodpecker started the day. I didn't have to wait long for starlings. Or mockingbirds. The mockingbird attacked a starling but was not able to dislodge it from the suet. Geese went out on the pool cover for a drink.
A brown headed nuthatch sampled the suet. A brown thrasher seized a barkbutter ball. A yellow rumped warbler hunted suet crumbs. The mockingbird decided to make do with barkbutter balls. I saw a brown headed nuthatch dive-bomb a bigger chickadee and actually drive it off the seed feeder briefly. And I saw bluebirds hanging around the birdhouse but naturally did not have the camera. When I had the camera, no bluebirds. Toward evening the cat settled in to watch the bird feeders.
