There's Enough For Everyone!!
We are having some "sharing" issues at my house...
We are having some "sharing" issues at my house...
so I decided to set up a few separate feeding stations for the smaller birds.
The Blues are the culprits...the are just down right "food hogs"!
It matters not...I still love them...
It matters not...I still love them...
But I love these guys too and they have been loosing the battle
against the Blue Jays.
The Jays chase away my cute little Titmice
before they are able to grab a nut.

These small black bowls are for the little ones.
They caught on quickly...
and seem to appreciate having there own feeding station!!
Always on alert...
looking for those men in blue.
This is working out well, so I will keep everything filled as it gets colder
and food is harder for them to find.

ReplyDeleteHI Debbie That was a good idea to separate the feeding areas and it is great that it is working. Al great shots. Have a wonderful weekend.
ReplyDeletePretty soon you will have them eating out of your hand. (⌒▽⌒)
ReplyDeleteClever Debbie. Naughty Blue Jays but I love them too. Cute shots of the birds.
ReplyDeleteSmart move, I think! The titmice are sooo cute!
ReplyDeleteI love the jays, too - and try to give them a separate area. You got some awesome shots of them - and the titmice, too! Fantastic colors!
ReplyDeleteI like the Jays but the Titmice is so cute Debbie!!
ReplyDeleteExcellent shots!!Gorgeous pictures!
Dimi...
Lovely issues they are. I've always said- when it comes to peanuts, Blue Jays rule! At least around here.
ReplyDeleteHi Debbie, your birdies are happy and thanking you.. Those darn Blue Jays can be piggies, but I love them too. I have seen them chasing away the small birds, glad your Titmouse found its happy place..Wonderful series of photos! Thank you so much for linking up and sharing your critter post.. Have a happy weekend!
ReplyDeletetitmice are soooooooooooooooooooooo cute!!
ReplyDeletethey're just adorable!!! lots of great shots of them! that last one is flat-out stinking precious!
ReplyDeleteI'm sure those little ones appreciate your hospitality! The big guys are beautiful, but they're such bullies!
ReplyDeleteJay's are great looking birds. Lovely Shots!
ReplyDeleteWhat lovely photos today Debbie, I loved them all.
ReplyDeleteSuper photos, Debbie! I LOVE the Blue Jays, but their visits here are few and far between, although I know they're around. We don't get the Titmice here.
ReplyDeleteThe color blue is so vibrant and you captured the true colors. Nice job!
ReplyDeleteThe cold seems to make their colors pop!
ReplyDeleteI know the bluejays are pills, but I do love them too. I'm glad our cardinals still come around. Your photos are stunning! The birds are such a joy, aren't they.
ReplyDeleteawww they're all so cute. It's wonderful that you keep them
ReplyDeletesupplied with food. And, what a great idea to separate
their serving sections! :)

Your birds must be better trained than mine. I'm pretty sure the Blue Jays would just take over the little feeders as well.
ReplyDeleteI split my seeds up in a lot of places too so more birds can feed at once without disturbing each other. Jays can be rather obnoxious, the colors in your photos are so vivid! The little Titmice look almost like miniature Jays with their crests raised, so cute! I wish I had some.
ReplyDeleteI know what you mean about the blue jays being greedy and bossy, but the titmice are so cute!!!
ReplyDeletePoor little Mice! They're just lovers, not fighters! The jays are definitely hogs! Beautiful photos!
ReplyDeleteOne of my favorite birds, but...the Blue Jays are sooooo gorgeous.
ReplyDeleteThey are SOOO cute! I love seeing your bird friends - they always make me smile. Hugs!
ReplyDeleteAwesome photos of the titmice. They're cute little birds.
ReplyDeleteThis has less cold;))
ReplyDeleteBeautiful shots! It looks like the titmice appreciate their special feeding stations. Too bad about the sharing problems though!
ReplyDeleteOh my I can see why they would have a hard time against the big bluejays, they are so much smaller. Both are just wonderful birds and it's great that you set them up their own feeding stations. I enjoyed these photos very much.
