Nanny, Is your suet feeder nailed to the trunk? We bought a fancy pole set up and have a hopper with suet feeders on the sides. From one hook is a suet plug feeder and the other a tube feeder with black-oil sunflower seeds. It's been up about a month and a half now. Nothing is touching this but for a couple attempts from the house sparrows. We know we have Downys, Red-bellieds and Flickers right now, but they are only going after the peanuts in the platform. I want to change things around, but not sure what will work.

Burd_fotos, beautiful eagles and snow buntings. I hope to see some of those this winter. Hope is the big word. :) And I like your Mourning Dove, Countrymom. I miss ours and do not know where they all went. It was a sad year because Iowa now allowed them to be hunted in September and October.

We went to the lake on Saturday and saw some beautiful Ring-billed Gulls. We enjoyed how close they got to us.
