Looks like I'm feeding an additional 100+ mouths this winter

[vi edit]

Since the snowfall dropped earlier this week I've gone through almost 20 pounds of feed. Ravenous little bastards...

I've had a flock of over 20 doves come in. A countless number of juncos. Some jays, a northern flicker, a red headed downy, a couple purple headed finches, some common sparrows, and just recently the Cardinals have started showing up.

I've got 5 different squirrels and a couple rabbits that scavenge the stuff on the ground.

Nice to have a bit of wildlife in the big city (Well...if you consider Omaha big).

Youre enjoying your day,
Everything's going your way,

Nuthatches? Gotta watch out for those P&N birds... they'll drive all the others off. 😀

Nice. I've never lived in an area where I've seen Cardinals.🙁

Was a cardinal right outside my window 5 minutes ago.

Those actually *were* taken with a DSLR. A 300D and a Sigma 70-200 f2.8.

It's just that they were taking from inside my home from this window and then resized down from 3+MB to around 160kb.

Between the resizing and the window a lot of the sharpness was lost.
