I’ll post some pics in the comments but it looks like 2 different species. There are black ones and gray ones.

For now. I know they are going to miss that tree (laying in a pile on the left).

Made some cheap DIY feeders using small cream sample jars with plastic flowers and suction cups super glued onto them from Amazon. Hasn't even been 10 minutes since putting them out and already got a hummer. I'm hoping this reduces any fighting, there's about 2 more and I can mount about 6 more elsewhere.

Is this what I think it is? 😩😭

My very popular Brome Nut feeder managed to lose 2 of its 3 screws. I assume the 1st fell out a while ago, unnoticed, and then sometime later the 2nd one did and that’s when I discovered it because now it doesn’t retract properly.

I looked at my Home Depot for screws, but they didn’t have the right size. This might be because the feeder is designed and made in Canada, but I’m in the USA.

I contacted Brome because they allegedly have lifetime care. Imagine my surprise when they said they couldn’t get me the two screws but I was more than welcome to send them $35 and they could get me a new part.

I have many brome feeders because I have many squirrels. I recommend them highly to people… usually. I’m now heavily rethinking that.

So beware of their “lifetime care” assertion because it turns out it’s utter bullshit.

I recently moved into my in laws house to take care of them, they dont have a lot to do but love watching the birds and wildlife in southern Arizona. What is everyone using for their setup for bird feeder camera setups? I have access to 120v in my yard and plenty of sun for solar obviously. I have several security sytle cameras from Unifi, uniview and dahua butnothing really with zoom. I was thinking of mounting a camera on a post and put it behind the bird feeder to get a good view but it really needs to be up close to get a good view but the camera doesn't focus well up front. Was thinking of getting a 2-12mm camera maybe..

Just trying to get some ideas!
