The male robins always show up in early spring and then it snows...a lot. They eat suet and mealworms on my tray feeder. Last year a pair of blue birds arrived early and ate at my feeder. Never had bluebirds here before. Felt good helping them survive.
Merry Christmas to you and your family and loved ones. May you have a wonderful time together and be blessed. Thank you, for sharing your time and helpful information with us. God bless
When the snow covers the ground the birds do need help. We have a creek nearby so they can get water. Getting out to the bird feeder is more difficult but winter boots and coats are near the back door. The birds clean out the feeders every day so we have to get out there early for bird breakfast to be served.
I feed my backyard birds because of habitat destruction makes it harder for them to find the food they need to survive. First and only reason. Everything else is gravy. ❤ Birds
Starlings do present a nasty problem for those of us who love to feed birds. There are some methods that can help. This video may help: ruclips.net/video/O16QsEdkoH4/видео.html
I’m in the northeast and I have a couple of mockingbirds that keep appearing but I don’t know what they eat other then the one Winterberry berries that I have. What would you suggest? Thanks!
I have had the most luck with peanut butter and cornmeal mixture with raisins and dried mealorms added. Here is a video link ruclips.net/video/Ygvuxuh6rng/видео.html
Birds are so cute and I enjoy feeding those precious little birds
They truly are!

Habitat destruction is terrible
Thank you for another great program, Mark! Merry Christmas to you and yours.
You are most welcome Denise and thank you for the continued support of the channel. Merry Christmas!
Always feed the birds in winter and the squirrels too.
You are definitely helping them.
Be careful the squirrels don't pack away the food into the Walls of your home...
Yes!
Merry Christmas! From North Myrtle Beach, SC.
Merry Christmas to you too! Thank you for watching.

The mockingbirds in my area eat fruits, nuts , mealworms and suet. They pretty much guard those feeders in my yard

Besides eating winterberries, I’ve seen our resident mockingbird eating berries from American Holly the other day and regularly at the suet feeder.
If I put peanut butter on the bread is that ok
It is better to mix the peanut but with something to give it a more crumbly texture like corn meal or fin sunflower chips.
I only use hot pepper suet now because the seeds were attracting rats. They try to nest under my vehicle hoods and in my pump house. Any suggestions?

@MarksBackyardBirds I think you sent the wrong link. All I got was an advertisement.
American robin: Wisconsin state bird yet they don't stay here year round😂
I'm afraid that is true for several state birds.
Old robins overwinter up here. :)
Only feeding SQUIRREL AWAY food now. Assume it is really healthy feed. LOTS of cardinals coming👏👏👏. And dried meal worms for the bluebird coming👍
It definitely is. I feed it in my camera feeder and many birds love it.
