There wasn't just one Jackdaw, but two - it looks like we have a pair in the backyard!

Back at the end of March, I saw a Jackdaw sitting on the chimney again!

My backyard #crow BFF, perched on a big planter pot - 2 feet from my potting station chair. It was doing some preening while I was potting up new food plant seeds 💗❤️💗

Here in the ‘burbs I prefer the “two holer” boxes. It gives the bluebirds a chance to defend themselves and their nests when the house sparrows attack.
If the HOSP setup shop first I plug the far hole, place a small screw, hang the van ert and wait. When a bird plops down the spring slaps the hole closed. Weekends only. It’s illegal to hold native birds if you catch them on accident.

Both bluebird nestboxes have been taken over by invasive house sparrows. I love being a bird landlord, but I hate the “management” of the bad guys. I used to be a live-let-live kinda guy. But they actively compete with the natives which are in steep decline.
Time to find my VanErtTraps…

Asleep in the Juniper
I was moving slowly under the juniper during my lunch break, camera up, half-expecting everything to scatter. A flock of dark birds had already bolted over the fence and away. So when I spotted the American Goldfinch perched on a branch a metre or so in front of me, I assumed the same thing was about to happen. It didn't move. I took a few frames. Still nothing. I edged closer. The bird sat there, rounded and fluffed, head slightly bowed. Then I noticed: its eyes were closed. Not blinking. […] -
If you are looking for a distraction, or just wholesome anecdotes detailing the entirety of our first bluebird experience, the thread is below. I hope to make a similar thread this year. Last year was a success, but very disjointed and poorly documented.

The Jackdaw I saw last year is still around in the backyard, but was very shy and trying to hide in the maple tree.

Last one for this morning. I think this house finch may have a future in modeling.

The red-bellied woodpecker wasn't in a mood to move far from the suet feeder this morning, so she hung out in the elm and I got some unusually candid preening photos. :3

One last look at the happy Eurasian Jay, perhaps wondering if there will be more peanuts.

Hey you, I hope you’re having a nice day.
Here’s a red bellied woodpecker from the old place. They are all over the new neighborhood, and have a LOT to say. But our feeders aren’t up yet.
