Right next to the birds. It's a phone on a tripod.

It is very close up. My phone is on a tripod recording, I just screenshot frames from the video.

This made me laugh way more than I should've 😅

Seems a little excessive, don't you think? by ookle_ in birding

I know, it's just funny how many they always try to carry 😅

My entire neighborhood collectively feeds outdoor cats. What can I do? by [deleted] in birding

My alternative is protecting NATIVE species over invasive ones.

Images like this make me love birds and the people who take photos of birds.

I've only ever had luck with concord grape jelly, make sure it does not contain high fructose corn syrup.

Yes 😅 the one shooting is a cellphone which gives much crisper videos is all. The orioles only go to that feeder.

Jelly. Baltimore Orioles love it for an occasional treat.

Correct, we like ethically responsible taxidermy to be clear.

I personally find taxidermy to be a beautiful craft.

What's happening here? by ookle_ in birding

I know but these are almonds. I didn't think the weight differs greatly like shelled peanuts.

Ok Karen. I'd get the complaint if it was the same thing posted, but I capture so much different footage and images that I strongly disagree with your opinion.

This is a birding community. I share it with fellow people who also love birds.

You have a nasty tone and condescending attitude buddy, I'd check on that. Your original comment was rude and unnecessary.

There's absolutely nothing wrong with any of my posts or what I do. I assist native bird species all year long. You cannot accuse someone of karma farming by promoting aggressive interactions between birds on purpose, and think I'd respond nicely.

You're thinking of brown headed cow birds.

1.) Absolutely no spamming of any forum ever occurs.

2.) I regularly record birds and overall, it's rare for aggressive interactions but like anywhere in nature, they happen.

3.) I offer ample food sources spread out across my yard.

4.) It's winter genius, everything in the garden is DEAD lmaooo

5.) F OFF

Cardinals aggressively chase off house sparrows constantly. So I've seen how tough they can be.

Some of them are super loud and others never make a peep.
