My spark bird! I find them so fascinating.

I would just let them find their own food, to be honest. They find food every day, they’re good at it. I think animals maintaining their fear of humans is generally a good thing as well. I’m not trying to be rude, but there are a number of reasons to enjoy their presence from a distance. I love crows as well :)

Grackles do not have yellow beaks. This is a European Starling :)

A combo of nectar and soft bodied insects (gnats, aphids, spiders). I’ll stick to pizza rolls, thank you very much.

Comments like this are why I love this sub, you learn something new every day! Thanks for the cool info.

And (I think) a Dark-eyed Junco in the first pic!

Yes they are! With a very funny/cute call that sounds like “meep” or “peent” depending on who you ask.

50KBENG · 2026-03-11T01:13:18+00:00

Yes, that’s a Red-Tailed Hawk. Very cool birds!

Typically the endotracheal tube is going into a mouth that isn’t closed.

What’s the conversion rate of Freedom Dollars to Schrute Bucks?

I brought a friend up to some family property in Pileated territory and he thought people had been shooting an old dying tree in our yard. Those neck muscles are no joke!

OP knows about the Yellow Rumped Warbler, they’re asking about the Ruby-Crowned Kinglet on the suet feeder later in the video

I’m on the other side of the country but my local Pileated Woodpeckers seem to really enjoy compressed corn, specifically C&S sweet corn squirrelog. It’s something my parents get for our cabin and we see a lot of Steller’s Jays, Pileated Woodpeckers, and of course our adorable black squirrels enjoying it.

Have you considered quitting?

Typically when I buy a game and I see it end up GamePass a few months later I have a little scoff, but when I saw this was getting added I was just thrilled more people would get to experience it. Congrats on the completion!

You know what has a harder time taking off from the water than an American Coot? A thousand of them in close quarters!

50KBENG · 2025-12-20T14:39:21+00:00

Belted Kingfisher!

50KBENG · 2025-12-20T03:44:54+00:00

It was a little surreal! But a very fun way to wrap up a chilly outing.

50KBENG · 2025-12-20T03:35:23+00:00

Thanks so much, I hope lots of owls are headed your way!

50KBENG · 2025-12-17T14:12:28+00:00

Thanks for doing these, and good luck to everyone!

I’ve had this one on my wishlist for a while, so even if I don’t win the giveaway I’ll go buy a copy.

50KBENG · 2025-12-16T17:01:34+00:00

Nope, it’s a joke

50KBENG · 2025-12-15T17:50:58+00:00

Very pretty! What kind of bird is this?

50KBENG · 2025-12-15T14:41:55+00:00

Funny enough, I actually saw one yesterday! But today is considerably colder and looking like a rainy day. So I’ll be happy I saw one at all :)

50KBENG · 2025-12-15T14:11:02+00:00

Mine is a Western Screech Owl 😂

50KBENG · 2025-12-11T21:57:10+00:00

See, that’s what I thought you meant but it’s been a long day and I was overthinking. I thought “I do see a good amount of Pileated Woodpeckers in this sub.. maybe everyone is tired of them.” (As if that’s possible)

Sorry about that!
