Winter Bird Station
I'm working on my winter bird station and still have a few more things to do but wanted to share a few practice shots. Here's the male downey and so far I haven't seen his lady but am sure she's out there.
The upsidedown bird at his finest. They're enjoyng suet and sunflower seeds and I'll also be putting out seed bells. I think it's going to be a good year for shots since they are already flocking to the feeders.

Cute shots! Looks like you will have plenty to shoot for the winter! Good luck!
Thanks Hannibal and now you can see what a lazy birder I am. I simply set everything up outside my window and let them come to me. That's probably why I enjoy your obsessions and adventures so much!
Great shot of the downy and nuthatch together - makes the photo all the more colorful!
I hope that bird did not get trapped in the suet feeder. Sometimes birds can get into trouble getting to the bird feeders. I had a bird got in a tube feeder one time, this last photograph reminded me of it.
Leedra I noticed the bird struggling and pushed the suet to the front. I'll have to keep an eye on this feeder and maybe switch it.
I'm enjoying your blog, GG... Beautiful pictures!!! We haven't had any Downy's around here I don't think... But--we've had Pileated, Red-bellied, Red-headed, and Northern Flicker. The Red-bellied comes to our feeders ALOT.
Betsy I've never had a pileated and would just go nuts trying to get a shot of I did. Thands so much for stopping by.
