Hasn't been much going on.

About the only things going on at the feeder is that one of the young squirrels has figured out that he can jump flat footed from the ground and reach the feeder. The bottom of the feeder is 4 ft. off the ground. And I was amazed the first time I saw him do it. The other new thing is that the mate of the Dove that got killed by the Hawk is coming to the feeder. He/She is the only one that comes by themself. The others all come in pairs. I imagine that it will be until next breeding season before they find another mate. I did put a shallow bowl under the feeder and I put some cracked corn in it every morning. So the ground feeding birds get a good supply of food. The Titmouse is getting about 20 peanuts a day. I put them in the basket in the morning and within 2 hrs. they have hauled them all off!
