Is it just me or does this look like a… questionable candle design

Furry bastard update. I replaced it with some metal mesh zip tied together. Squirrel was able to use the same trick and just bend the mesh out of the way, so I reinforced it with some upins. Success at last? Now he’s just pissed and trying to chew through it, which hasn’t worked so far

More birds from earlier. We had the siskins, some juncos, finches, starlings and a northern flicker. 🪶

Cooper’s Hawk came to visit the bird feeder. 🪶 No hawk, that does not mean it feeds you birds

There’s been a flock of what looks like goldfinches all over the feeder today. Wonder if they’re migrating? 🪶

I spent my morning being commissioned by the children to make swords out of Knex

My solution: cut a hole in a frisbee and stick it on top of the feeder so there’s enough barrier the squirrel can’t reach. And if it sits on the frisbee to try and hang from that, the spring mechanism engages and closes the feeder. I want to see it try. For science 🪶. 3/3

Some birbs from this morning. Scrub jay, finches, a starling and one furry bastard who was getting a drink instead of raiding the feeder like usual. 🪶

Couple of birds from a few days ago, a goldfinch and what I think was a very squawky juvenile redwing blackbird 🪶

Kiddo heard a thump and screeching through the fireplace, and thought a bird got trapped in it. Nope, just a great horned owl that looked like it was eating something. Flew off and came back a couple of times. Nighttime picture made better by @stoutheartstudio.com editing 🪶

Calliope hummingbird was out and about while I was working in the front garden 🪶

Also, when they weren’t being chased away by the Rufous, a Broadtailed and a Calliope 🪶

Got some closeup shots of the Rufous hummingbird while I was sitting out on the deck underneath the feeder. Between it chasing off a couple of other hummingbirds. 🪶

A chickadee was convinced the fake flower on our hummingbird feeder had something to offer. The hummingbirds just wanted it to go away so they could eat 🪶

Found this guy wandering around at the dentist, guess he needed his mandibles cleaned (spider-like wind scorpion, picture hopefully hidden behind a content warning thing)

Nuthatch has been visiting the suet feeder a lot lately, it’s feeding a younger one 🪶

Northern flicker on the deck, and a finch enjoying an orange half

These hummingbirds look a little sus 🪶

Birds! Had a flock of cedar waxwings in the trees, and found a robin sitting in a nest that is, given the way they’re chasing off squirrels, full of eggs 🪶
