Urban Birds

Baltimore Oriole SIX

With another migration season nearly done I thought I would feature some urban birds. During spring and fall migration one can attract some very interesting varieties of birds to city feeders. In addition to Oriole feeders you could just try oranges. The orioles love them.  I hear grape jelly is another Oriole favourite.

Below: Juvenile Cedar Waxwings – a very elegant bird. A small flock found a mountain ash to feed on the berries. Cedar Waxwing juveniles

The Black Capped Chickadee is a year round guest at the feeders.  They love black oil sunflower seeds.

Finally – a beautiful Downy Woodpecker. Try putting out some suet if you want to attract these birds to your yard.

Enjoy!
