I was living in the Ocala National Forest 3 years ago and I had a swallow-tailed kite that met me at my car in the morning on my way to work for 2 mornings in a row, it swooped down and was grabbing this straw that the forestry service had just spread along the easement of the road and dropping it at my feet as I stood by my car 4 times the first day and 6 times the next morning. This bird and I never broke eye contact the whole time and keep in mind its doing these tight turns in front of me in about a 20 foot circle. Very cool experience, my number 3 coolest bird interaction

I have one that hangs around porch just squeaking and tweeting idk if its really a titmouse it has a crest and grey. Though he never taps like this guy!

What a joy to listen and watch! Thanks for the cool video! Beautiful backyard too!

I live in citrus County Florida what months out of the year are they in Florida ? Thank you

What is bark butter???

Beautiful winged angels!

I saw a couple of these beautiful birds flying very Low in my front yard today , July 11 , 2023 , I stood very still and they flew right by me , right above my head , they were not even bothered by my presence , I have never seen these sooooo Up Close until today , it was AWESOME!! I live in Texas close to the Gulf .

I have a female cardinal that looks almost like that for the past 3 or 4 months. Dont k ow why her head is bald

so cute

I love this. Thanks for sharing.

I have three pair of Mourning Doves that come to my feeders here in Texas. So beautiful!! Love them!! Thank you for these beauties!!

I saw 3 of these in terry Ms last year around the last hurricane that came through in 2021. Odd to see them

This is a little clip I made about him. Basically everything I said in the last comment. ua-cam.com/video/uzsG92zOOwI/v-deo.html ... One thing to consider when deciding whether or not to grow your own worms is that with a stock of worms, you'll be the hit of the party for a whole lot of critters. Lizards, birds, chickens, and most recently... a tarantula I kept for a day in a terrarium. I let him go where I found him so I go out there at night and feed him right in his burrow. Interesting.

The price of mealworms in pet stores is ridiculous. They say they're dirt cheap to breed but from my own experience... it costs a bit to get set up. I had to buy quite a few containers to grow them in. I finally found some good sized ones with lids at the .99 Cent Store. I think the biggest cost is buying the wheat bran. It used to be so cheap but the prices are going through the ceiling now. I keep hoping to find a good feed & grain store but it seems they're all selling it at higher prices because it's called bedding. And of course lots of carrots. I had it going for a while and was doing pretty well on production. But my friend, Elvis... the mockingbird disappeared and I kinda let it go. But now I have one little wren that comes by every day. Cutest little dude ever. He's always excited so his tail is a blur in any pictures I get of him. I'm old and pretty crippled up. Some days I just can't get out there to fill his feeder bowl so what we do is I call him and he always shows up. He sits on the ledge of my porch and I throw worms out for him. He makes a fun game out of it. He's getting braver and braver ever day. He'll come up to about 2 feet from me. Lol... I guess he knows I can't get up and chase him. To get my stock going again I just ordered 1,000 large worms and 2,000 medium for breeding. 3,000 mealworms is quite a sight. It won't take long to get them producing again. I'm tempted to keep 1,000 or so in a container just to show him. He'll flip out on that. BTW... I didn't know what to name him but I kept thinking of Rin Tin Tin, the old B & W TV show. I named him Wren Tin Tin. But he answers to Wren Tin for short. I bet your kids there are loving this experience. Good for you to show them the wonders of nature...

Only problem with vertical suet logs are grackles and blackbirds. I had to put mine horizontal.

Problem with this is here in Volusia County I got mobbed by grackles and blackbirds on that log just like this one. They had no problems clinging to side, very sad. So I had to make mine an upside down one.

What's the diameter and length of log?

Me encantan las abes de canto

Saw 30 of these at confluence of Ohoopee & Altamaha Rivers yesterday. Quite a sight to see. Never saw a large group before.

Ha. I have been trying to identify this bird for several years. I've only encountered him a handful of times, but he certainly caught my attention and led me on a search for his identity. I live in Levy county Florida and honestly, the first time I saw one, I thought it was some exotic bird from the tropics.

Wow...

This is a beautiful bird. I have one in my neighborhood but I can never see him.

This is some good crow content

so pretty and big ,,,,i have one in my yard,,,he comes to eat corn and to trash the place ,,,

I like your bath tray 👍👍 . I just have a tray of water for them to bathe. I don’t have a continuous water pour into the tray like yours

A feeder with a roof over the tray 👏👏👏👏 . I always worry about the birds in the rainy season so I have to put a big roof on my tray too . Welcome to my garden I have some birds too

Super cool video ❣️❣️❣️❣️❣️

Thanks

Thanks

Does your organization sell these bird baths? I set one up with a solar pump and the motor failed within one week. I would love to set up a hanging birdbath with a reliable long term water flow like this one. Such cute birds, great video!

Love that bath set up!!!

Disculpa k es lo k estan comiendo estos pajaros

Look at his hopping at 1:55😂

save this

I just ordered a log feeder to attract Pileateds!

They're so beautiful. Definitely among my favorite birds together with crows and ravens.

Don't put mealworms in your bird feeder! They attract moles! Just found this out after finding a mole infestation under my bird feeders in my new garden. Was using bird seed with dry mealworms.

Hello, what ingredients does the bait have?

We have a pair in our back woods but they haven’t come to our feeders yet but I am hoping!

A thumbs up for the video 👍

Does it mean they’re ready to fledge if they stop producing fecal sacs? I had some on my porch and they started hopping out and two of them stopped producing fecal sacks and the two others were still producing them and I was very worried about them but they all flew away with their parents. They flew from my hedge to my tree, and then flew to another small tree next to my house and there’s two babies huddling together. They were going up and down the oak tree there were originally four of them but now I can only find two. 😢

Very interesting!

Crazy how far such a small bird can fly from the far north all the way to the tropical south, back and forth. I would assume the rufous and black chinned hummers replace the ruby throats and buff bellied hummers on their summer range along the Gulf Coast.

Starlings or some species of Blackbirds were cast also, LOL.

A Cardinal wanted to be in pictures also. LOL.In East Missouri White Throats & White Crowns have left my feeders along with most of the Slate Colored Juncos.Chipping, Song, or Tree Sparrows hangout @ the feeders trying 2 identify which is which, LOL. Cool video.

What type of food are they eating

Thank you for sharing this. Deep East Texas still has a few but, yes, the numbers are dwindling. They will he missed.
