Another really beautiful shot. :) Thanks for the feeder tip. I think I'm going to try this this winter!

Nice image Alan. The bill looks slightly soft to me.

Another great one! I don't know how you do it.

How do you get the birds to go to the perch? My birds always bypass it and go straight to the food. Or do you have enough traffic that some birds use the perch to wait their turn.

A.J. One trick is to use a platform feeder or tray type feeder. Once the birds are used to feeding in it, then place some cardboard over it with a small enough hole for one bird to feed in it. The other birds will stage on whatever perch you place near it while they are waiting. Thanks for the comments.
Glad I am not a bird in your yard :lol:
Lovely image.
