At the Bird Feeders

I own two Birdfy bird feeders — the Birdfy Smart Bird Feeder with a Pro Perch and the Birdfy Hum Feeder. The bird feeder is mounted on a front yard window frame. The hum feeder is mounted on a pavilion post in our back yard.

The most common visitor to the bird feeder is the Common Grackle. Sometime yesterday the Birdfy camera caught two Grackles having a spat.

Grackles are mean to each other, as well as to other birds. The only way to keep grackles off my feeder is by using a metal cage, specially made for the bird feeder. I prefer an unobstructed view, without a cage in view. Also the cage would prevent other large birds, which I want to see, from utilizing the feeder.

What a BIG peanut!
Grackles like grape jelly.
Grackles have beautiful iridescent feathers.

Today, Birdfy captured Mr and Mrs Cardinal on the perch together.

Male and Female Northern Cardinals

At the Birdfy Hum Feeder I was very happy to see both the female and male Ruby-Throated Hummingbirds today.

These two bird feeders have elevated my birdwatching experience. I now can see birds up close and personal. The bird feeders notify and record when birds visit. I can enjoy birdwatching anytime, anywhere.
