Gold Finches, House Finches, cardinals, doves, chickadees, tit mice, downy woodpeckers and one Carolina wren rooting through the seed waste underneath the feeders looking for bugs.

Here is what I saw yesterday at mine...
They figured out how to dump the one on the right.
I forgot to add "What's at your feeders??" I'm in the Upstate of South Carolina. What do you have in some of the other areas of our great country??
Add in hairy and red bellied woodpeckers and subtract the Carolina wren and your view would be the same as ours. Suet and sunflower seeds make for cheap but good entertainment. Bob
This guy was watching the birds and squirrels at our feeders...
Here in southern Wisc. feeding nothing but sun flower seed with 12" of snow on the ground I'm still getting DOVES !? Why the hell aren't they south???
I am seeing a lot of the same birds here.
Why would a woodpecker hang out at a bird seed feeder? I have them all the time here in NC.
William81 that must be an equal opportunity bird feeder.
House finches, lesser goldfinches, dark eyed juncos, mountain chickadees, ladderback woodpecker, flicker, Coopers hawk comes for a bath, collared doves, white winged doves, mourning doves, ruby crowned kinglets. Fountain brings great tailed grackles, robins, curved billed thrashers.

After the screwy squirrel knocked down my tree feeder, the birds didn't seem to mind eating their meal on the ground. We also get a lot of nuthatches and mourning doves here and the blue jays like to chase everyone away and hog the feed for themselves.
