Birds at my feeder, 2009

Posted by Anonymous User at 14-02-2009 22:09

Just wanted to mention that this winter season I seem to have more Mourning Doves then ever before. I am not sure what that means or if the word is just getting out, but have been in the home with the feeders for over 7 years so it is surprising.

The other surprising note was coming home today and finding a Northern Harrier casually sitting within 2 feet of the feeder; and even the closing of my car door did not scare him, he just hopped to the ground and walked around some. Sorry I did not have my camera and didn't dare to move because I did not want to scare him. He appeared again a short time later and I was able to get a good look through the binoculars at him. Very impressive.

Seems the siskins got on fertility pills this past spring. I never had close to this amount. Tried to count them but cant get them to stay still long enough. At least 200
