Re: [Maine-birds] New and unwelcome feeder bird...

Several years ago I stopped using any feed with corn in it. Not perfect, but I like to think the lack of corn keeps away those hungry, messy big birds.

They have been seen regularly about a quarter mile away for over a year now but have now made an excursion into my part of town (Bar Harbor).  They seemed hesitant to go the ground feeder which is under a bush.  They even intimidated my "gang of five" Blue Jays that have been ruling the feeder area for some time now.  I know many of you have had them for some time now but this is new to me.  Maybe I will get a bigger cat.  --  ---Check our nature, family, and other photos at:  www.fotki.com/townsend-maine
