Feel free to share your photos and other birding-related content here. If a photo you post isn't yours, please credit the original creator! Additionally, it would be appreciated if the location of the sighting and a date were given when a photo or question is posted. You do not have to give the precise location, something like "Northern Idaho, June 2023" or even "North-Western US, June 2023" suffices.

We have a few cardinal pairs show up. I'll have to pay more attention to the ladies to see if I can tell them apart!
We have a handful of Blue Jays, but they don't show up that often. I'll have to modify my feeder perches to better accommodate larger birds.
My jays love peanuts in the shell. They haven't been interested in much else I've put out.
The cardinals have like the unshelled and broken peanuts and the sunflower seeds.
The woodpeckers have enjoyed mealworm suet with sunflower seeds, though they'll also hit up the feeders to get the sunflower seeds.
I've been tempted to try one of these peanut wreaths so I can leave nuts out for the jays without all the squirrels taking them first.
