The following photographs are of just a few of the frequent avian visitors that come to the feeders on a daily basis. I provide these little guys with a variety of foods to keep them going through our harsh Maine winters.
A mourning dove (Zenaida macroura) sitting on a wooden post in the falling snow.
A close-up of a red-breasted nuthatch (Sitta canadensis) during the winter in Maine.
A dark-eyed junco (Junco hyemalis) perched on a wooden post in the falling snow.
A curious black-capped chickadee (Poecile atricapillus) at the feeder with a black sunflower seed in its mouth.
