The platform feeder attracts a variety of birds that don't always come to a tube feeder, as well as some birds who are too big to eat out of a tube feeder. One day in August I aimed the BirdCam towards the platform feeder and here is the activity it photographed.
The day starts with a House Finch and Oak Titmouse front and center. I've watched an Oak Titmouse fly in pick out a safflower seed then fly away into the bushes only to come back and do the same thing over and over again .
Next up is a juvenile Spotted Towhee, it's adult feathers are coming in.
A couple of Juvenile Grosbeaks with three female House Finches.
This must be kids day as here is a juvenile California Thrasher.
Now a Crow and he does a nice job of smiling for the camera.
Now another big bird, a Band-tailed Pigeon.
Now a friend is flying in.
And a third Band-tailed Pigeon joins the group.
So how many more do you think we can get on here?
Hey we might be getting close to a record.
Oh but wait, a party crasher is climbing in.
The squirrels enjoy the seed and view too!
