Ruby-crowned Kinglet at it again and again and again

Howdee all,

No this is not the Ruby-crowned kinglet..it is the Brown thrasher that visits my feeders here in North Carolina.

The Ruby-crowned Kinglet showed up today..and spent much of the day..

doing what you see in the video below.

I am wondering if there are actually two kinglets on the attack…because the first video the Kinglets ruby is very small and toward the back of the head.

The Crown is amazing in the second video…You must check it out!

Sorry about the video quality..Smile

We had a wonderfully warm day today…Mid to High 60s.

A nice evening sky with pinks and blues.

See the white rope coming from the roof of Homey in the photo below?..that’s not to keep us from flying away..hee hee…

  We put two green tarps on the roof…held down by ropes tied to stakes. Its to protect our roof from mounds of purple and red bird poop.

The Robins have arrived…I haven't seen any Cedar Waxwings yet..

Soon they will devour the Holly berries and leave the poopy splats …The last winter we were here it took Jeff forever to clean off the mess…so this time we are prepared…
