I love the peckers! I’ll have an average of 4-8+ Downy’s at all times of the day, a pair of Hairy’s about every 1.5 hours and a pair of Pileated’s about every 45 minutes. I also get a Northern Flicker a few times a day, 4+ blue jays every 1.5 hours, million Chickadee’s, red breasted nuthatches and white breasted nuthatches constantly at the feeders.
I’ve got lots of feeders up outside my front window. It’s a real pleasure to watch them. One main feeder I’ve set up 12’ from my big window with my recliner sitting there, 11’ in the minimum focus distance of my big telephoto lens.
I think the flying little pigs are costing me $200+ a month to keep up with on suet and black oiled sunflower seeds though!
Nice photos and video. Set up some feeders and enjoy them from your house on the long cold winter days.
