Yes, the females were on the ground during that picture. And yes they have been around for a couple of years.

I've been taking pictures for the last few days also, in the same place that ThePigeonKid has been. Here are two of my pics, the rest are in my albums:

I have been trying to get a photo of a bird (I believe it to be a Tufted Titmouse) while it was eating food off the ground when it got up and flew away. I managed to get a pic though, here it is :

Very nice photos everyone! I'll have to try and get the Black Phoebe that hovers outside my backdoor and the windows that look out over the back patio. This little bird is very curious, and when I'm in the kitchen, he's right there hovering at the backdoor!

That sounds great!

Here are the birds I seen just today:

House Finch 5 females 1 male
Mourning Doves 5
Dark-eyed Junco 16 males
Northern Cardinals 2 males
Tufted Titmouse 1

I can't find the suet recipe that I wanted to post, so I'll keep looking...

So what types of birds do you guys see?

Hi there pigeonkid I too am an avid bird feeder/watcher and cant get enuf of it especally during the winter , love seeing their little footprints in the snow too ..I have at least 9 cardinal pairs that visit my feeder daily with a wide variety of other birds that join in as well ..I have found that you cant go wrong with feeding the black oil sunflower seeds as they all love them to no end and they always come back for more ,its just a shame they cost so much now ... now as for suet recipes I hope this link will help as there is many of them to choose from http://www.sialis.org/suet.htm

Today I found a recipe that I made for the birds a while back.

It is called "Feeder Cake," here is the recipe:

2 cups of sifted flour
1/2 cup of sugar
2 tsp. of baking powder
1/4 cup of butter
2 large eggs
1 cup of milk

Bake the cake 50-60 minutes at 350*F.

Nice pics everyone. I would put bird feeders out but my cat would probably think it was a bait pile.
