I was lucky to catch a skirmish at the feeder yesterday.The kitchen window was lowered and the feeder was 50ft. away.I have to tape off half of the feeding ports because I would be filling the feeders every day.Have a Happy and Healthy New Year to all.--charliezap

great capture Charlie, an "action shot" ... must be a sparrow thing, I put out a seed stick and the sparrows polish it off in a day, quite aggessive, none of the native birds get a look in.
cheers & a happy new year
