Cow birds are a pain in the a$$ if you can put one feeder out with just safflower seed and another with just niger seed keeps the grackles cow birds sparrows and black birds away also squirrels away too

Great shots Dave.

 

I thought I was seeing things when I seen a Baltimore. Yup it was.

 

 

 

 

Guess the new crib is done? Any pics? Really liked the open concept of your other house.

Soon to start working on the newer than new crib...we cant seem to be able to move into them ...maybe we will just build a cottage up here now and leave in the winters...pondering the thought of the east coast for long term

[Joey]

Great shots. Saw my first ever Rose Breasted yesterday. Beautiful birds. So if I put oranges in my backyard, the Baltimores will come?

[Rodbender]

Orioles love grape jelly

[Joey]

Well I'll give up my oranges, but damned if I'll let them have my grape jelly

[Rodbender]

LMAO

[Twocoda]

yes Joey it works...also as rodbender says ....grape jelly put into a plumbing test cap and zippy tied to a fence or tree etc.....test caps are orange ,made of pvc and very cheap as opposed to buying an expensive Baltimore oriole feeder....i just cut an orange in half...lance a hole through the center of the half and pierce a small branch through the orange so it stays on the tree

[Rodbender]

Don't wait you can just put Grape jelly in a plastic shot glass or even just on a spoon put it near the tree on a stump or a block of wood
