The downy

I heard the click click of the female black throated blue warbler. She's been hanging around.

Every day there's a picture story. I turned around and saw the downy woodpecker a the feeder, moved closer, but not too close. She's skittish. Sharing is not part of the behavior pattern.

                                   When she has the whole side to herself she starts eating.

                                                                Oh oh, an intruder.

                                                       That got sorted out very fast.

                                      After eating enough she flew to a branch over my head.

                     The sparrows also grab sunflower seeds from the flowers themselves
