And, of course, they are native, House Sparrows are not.

--Brunswick, MESitting here watching my feeders and, for the first time since I moved to my new home this August, I'm getting Common Grackles--looks like a whole flock--swooping into my backyard and hitting my feeders hard. They're coming in waves and just dropping in, like they were flying over and suddenly saw a great restaurant at my exit.Noooooooo! What's next, House Sparrows? Is my run of pest-free backyard feeding over?
Will they ever leave? Mine is a pretty rich buffet; there are about thirty of them feasting out there. Theirs is a terrible, glossy-green beauty. Were they just really migrating over and saw my place? That's what it seems like. I had them year-round in Central PA, but this is new.
Not the platform feeder! That Maine Mix is for my Red-breasted Nuthatches and Tufted Titmice! Nooooo!!!!It's like Hitchcock's The Birds, minus Suzanne Pleshette's getting her eyes pecked out.
