Birds small and large

Photo by Jan Hansen

My hummingbirds left one summer for a fresh meal of flowers and never came back. I finally took down the feeder.

They have been replaced by a dozen other birds, including enormous Flickers, Steller Jays, and the occasional crow.

Sometimes I have a woodpecker like this one but mostly I have the smaller Downy Woodpeckers.

What I don't have is the ability to get good photos of these visitors, so I'm happy to rely on contributors like Jan Hansen.

  1. Thank you for the photos. We notice our hummingbird water doesn't go down much but assure you they are still coming by, have seen them but not often and have young to feed so would hope you could keep feeder up .....
