Blue jay, dark-eyed junco, northern cardinal on a snowy afternoon.In winter, when we feed suet dough to our backyard birds, we often see a number of hungry individuals waiting for their turn to eat. I did not realize this fully until I started taking pictures of the suet dough visitors on our back deck railing. This series of images, like many other similar shots I've shared here recently, was taken with a Wingscapes BirdCam.
I think it's pretty interesting how the birds line up along the deck railing. There were a number of neat combinations of birds in the images the camera captured—I'm only sharing a handful here.
Cardinals at the suet dough.
Juncos only.
Junco (head only) and three cardinals. We're out of food.
Cardinal, bluebird, cardinal, bluebird.
Ever see those old couples in restaurants eating unhappily and saying NOTHING to each other?
Cardinals are always the last birds at the feeder at the end of the day.
