I like the Nuthatch:

This picture is not upside down, the bird is. Nuthatches hang upside down at feeders and on the sides of trees.
The name on that photo is not mine. It’s a picture that came up on a Google Image search.

Bird feeders for wet weather?

Miki asked:


Seeds get nasty from the rain we have been having lately. I only have a balcony to work with and since I am on the top floor it isn’t covered.
I don’t think the management will let me use a tarp. They already don’t like me since my bike is on the balcony.

Do you know any safe way to kill weeds/grass without hurting the birds that visit my feeders?

Steffy asked:


I put my bird feeder in the middle of some patio stones and the seed drops between the stones and grass and weeds grow. I pluck them out but was wondering if there was an easy way to kill it without hurting my little feathered friends. Thank-you!

Do mockingbirds feed at bird feeders?

mrs g3 asked:


We were in Tennessee last week, and I loved the way they sing. I was just curious whether they come to feeders or are strictly fend-for-themself-type birds.
We don’t have them in Wisconsin, sadly.
