Not the same birds that were here last weekend. Those were plump. At least three of these are too thin to suit me. Don’t know if they are from near-by and have not had an opportunity to fatten up or if they have traveled so far they have burned off the fat they had. They are working on beefing up now. Four main feeders have been claimed. Others are cruising through and stopping at extra feeders. Still seeing birds who act like they have never seen a feeder. For the second time ever, saw two birds sit at the same feeder. Third bird came up and chased off second bird. Most people here have never seen this. Saw a bird catch a bug in mid-air. Drive thru dinner. Saw a really strange and upsetting bird. If I don’t see him again I will never know what he was.
