Beautiful! Do they require a special feeder? We have two in our yard I'd love to see more often.

No special feeder, but they love peanuts, corn, sunflower seeds, and bread crums.

Nice shots as always Ira. I would consider toning down the contrast (jmo) and fixing the noise in the bg on #1.

Mine love the suet feeder with a nut and berry mix. But, I have also seen them chas ethe sparrows away from the regular mix of seed on the ground.
the chicadees and other woodpeckers like the suet also.
