4. The chickadees are tiny bullies

With the feeders so close to the house, so far the squirrels and the deer are not visiting them. Even the larger birds are staying away. The largest so far are the cardinals. The blue jays hang out in the trees, yell at the smaller birds, but don't fly this close. On the other hand after the chickadees have pushed them off the feeders some of the chipping sparrows literally hang on the window screens.

I'm hoping to put out some suet feeders tomorrow, but will put them further away so the woodpeckers can better hand off them.
