I haven't gone out much, so grateful for the birds who came to see me, even the Cooper.
-
Hmm, food chain is on display here. So, which one is one fewer? Juncos or the Cardinals?

Luckily, no casuality that I've witnessed so far.

I must admit that I've never seen two juncos fighting.
They seem so timid in my backyard
Also recently saw a Cooper's Hawk on the fence, perched for a few minutes
but not nearly long enough to get my camera, which I couldn't even
find it at first.

They do some times at my feeder, and I am amazed to see two both rise to mid air and continue with the kicking, but so hard to predict which two are going to do that. And so far I haven't got deer to my feeder during the day, maybe they still have enough to eat in the woods.

I haven't seen any deer in the wooded area across the street so far this season.
Saw a Red fox once a couple of weeks ago but nothing since then. Then again,
there is no feed dropped as in previous years so there is little incentive for deer to visit.
I put out suet today for the first time in quite a while. I figure the blue jays will likely
discover it first and then attack the cage. I'm sure it will be the scene of a very brutal
and savage divestiture. No other bird will have a chance. At this time of year we
really should have a few song birds so that they could gather and sing Christmas carols.
Wouldn't that be grand. The juncos in their dark and light livery look so formal, as
if dressed for a concert.
