I have been feeding birds for over 25 years and all the birds listed here visit my feeders in southern NH every year. Thanks for your informative and entertaining video.
Your voice is very soothing. Leslie the Bird nerd brought me to your channel. I love birds due to my Grandmother teaching me about the different birds with her books.
Nice video! We got to add two feeders to our setup, and today for the first time we had a BUNCH of birds hanging out in the yard and the tree beside the feeder. Our resident cardinals and catbirds were there of course BUT!! I also got eyes on three Carolina Wrens, two Chickadees, and a Tufted Titmouse!!! I keep hearing White-throated Sparrows early in the morning, but haven't seen those yet.
I envy who attract robins to their suet. Ours used to stick around through winter when we had a row of currents. we removed them and put in a hummingbird garden. However, we also planted winterberry, beauty berry, elderberries chokeberry, honeysuckle, nannyberries, Yew, and service berry, but the berries are are finished by the birds by mid-fall so the robins don't stay. We may plant a mature mountain ash to convince the robins to stick around through winter again due to the large berry source on the Mountain ash tree we have in mind.
Lovely video, thank you! Here in NJ I have all of these birds at my feeder except (luckily) House Sparrows 😅 We live in a very wooded area - I guess the sparrows dont like trees lol
This video is also pretty good for someone watching in the Northeast US. I guess the only major difference would be that blue jays on the east coast prefer to mimic the calls of red-shouldered hawks than red-tailed hawks.
At around the 2:30 mark you mention that there will be a link in the description on how to tell downy and hairy woodpeckers apart. I didn't see the link. For me, the easiest method is to look at the beak. If you were to fold the downy woodpeckers beak backwards it would barely reach to the eye. In hairy woodpeckers, a folded beak would reach all the way back to the back of the head.

I've seen all fifteen of these birds and were a good choice for this video.

I have been seeing 12 of the 15 birds visiting my feeder😊.
I see all of these in the Carolinas except the black-capped chickadee is replaced by the Carolina chickadee. Nice video, as always! 😊

It’s been added!
Just today I discovered I have BOTH downy and hairy woodpeckers when I thought I only had downies. The long bill and song gave away the hairy one.
Nice!
I have seen all these birds in my backyard except the Red-winged blackbird.
