Just had to point this out (especially since Matt started this thread way back in March)...

Matt has broken the 2000 posts barrier! 

LOL, that was good lyceel, even a cake!  I hope that at least 25% of those posts were entertaining.  I have learned a ton in the past year and looking forward to my next 1,000.  Thanks.

Western Tanager doesn't appreciate being interrupted from its meal.

That's great!  I really love the 2nd picture - that poor finch!  What did she do to deserve that!

Actually that Western Tanager is a bit like me when I'm eating something good!

Bird memory has to be amazing.... I have Gilas hiding pecans all over my yard.  This Acorn Woodpecker pulled this acorn out of the wire connector.

Nice shot, Matt!  Yes, birds do have great memories, at least the ones I've encountered.

Some of the stuff birds eat really doesn't look appetizing.

Yeah, Matt = the lesson is "if you don't like what I fix, make your own meals!"

This beautiful egret was eating these little bitty fish - one after the other.  I can't believe how pretty these birds are, I wish we had more of them.  What this one was doing up here in November is beyone me.
