Debbie,
On page 6 of the thread there are some pictures of yours. One of them is of a round 'cage' that has large pieces of nut meat.
If you don't mind, where did you get that from?
I think that type of 'cage' would keep some of my pests from getting large free meals. LOL
Thank you in advance for any information you can share.
This is fairly small cage, about 6", that may be used for nut meats or for nesting materials in the Spring. I purchased mine at Wild Birds Unlimited. There are several stores around Puget Sound area or there is an online store as well.
I use a baffle above it to discourage squirrels and I bring it in if the starlings begin to hang out. The mixed nut mix from WBU stay put nicely. Hope this helps!

I like the feel of the picture and detail in the feathers. The nice soft color background gives the subject good contrast along with depth. Was this taken through a glass window by chance?

No glare. This seems like a close candid shot. I understand that windows can serve as a blind. I prefer to not shoot through a window due to all the obstacles of glare, reflections, dirty smudges, etc. but when the lighting is right and the window is clean, I've notice it offers a distinctive feel similar to what you have here. Seems to add a dimensional aspect to the picture, including softer features around the photo yet, adds sharpness to the subject you are shooting. Focusing through the window does this. I like the results here.
nice catch, Debbie! these little fellas are among the more "energetic" species, and often hard to catch sitting still... but very photogenic when you do!
Thank you all. In reviewing 2014 the Bewick's Wren might have been my most photographed bird! Here are three "portrait poses" from last year. They never fail to make me smile.
Good shots. The last flicker is a male red-shafted/yellow-shafted intergrade due to the red chevron on the back of its neck. These seem to be getting more common around here.
Four young flickers have hung out here since they fledged this past spring:
One female and one male, orange shafted without chevron
Two males, orange shafted with chevron
This yellow shafted beauty I believe to be the mom.
