Hello Tweeters,
After i read all the storys about the Townsend's Warbler's, i must tell you
mine intresting episode with this Species. I been trying for weeks now to
get photos of this Birds in my Little Noble Fir i bought in Dezember .
Every time i see them in the tree and i get this a little to close there
fly off. I photographed all kind of other birds in this tree, but this
Townsend's Warblers are verry worry and alert when there in this little
tree.So when i came home today,first thing i checked the tree.Yes there was
again one warbler in the tree the other sitting on the Patio reeling
still.I looked at the Suet feeder, and there was two Downy Woodpecker on
the Suet,one on each side.So this Townsend Warbler looked up as if he tells
them:HOW LONG I HAVE TO WAITE TO GET ON????I went downstairs and got my
camera (the bird was still sitting at the same spot looking up at this
Woodpeckers,when one flew of' the Townsend's Warbler went on to the Suet.
This is one most wanted bird either in the wild or in you yard. The best is
seeing them in a birth-bath when there fluffing there feathers.
Birds seeing in the little Noble Fir sofar:
Chestnut-backed Chickadee's
Black-capped Chickadees
Bewick's Wren
Steller's Jay
Anna's Hummingbird (went on to the red ribbon to attack)
Dark-eyed Junco
