Feed Me!

Carolina Wren sitting on the fence this morning making lots of noise. Stopped seconds after I put a new suet cake in the holder- it was on the holder as soon as I went inside, followed by a female Downy Woodpecker. The other day a Red-bellied Woodpecker (we have a pair hanging around- this was the male) was on the suet feeding and stabbing at Starlings that were attempting to get on the holder at the same time. The Starlings gave up after a few attempts. One of the funny sights on the suet is watching a Blue Jay try to feed on it. They peck at it a few times but can't quite get the hang of staying on the feeder and getting the suet at the same time for more than a few seconds.
