Birds in the yard
Forums:
There have been a huge number of birds in the wildly overgrown parts of my yard lately. Luckily, some of those areas are very near the house and I have a lot of windows through which to see them. I am pretty sure that Greg is "in" the birds, so I welcome them even more than I might for just being cool birds. Greg's favorites were the squawky ones, the crows and the blue jays.
The yard is full of Steller's jays, finches including American Goldfinch, black-capped chickadees, hummingbirds, robins, pine siskins, Northern Flicker, crows and many others. There are so many wings fluttering, birds flitting, songs and arguments, it's really fun. I have a feeder that gets a lot of visits.
My favorite to see is the (red-shafted) Northern Flicker, a woodpecker-type. It usually comes around in January, but has been here already in December.
I also like the Steller's Jay's crests.
I really like birds. (Google image photos)

Lots of snow here so many
Lots of snow here so many birds take off to the south for the winter. We do have some beautiful Cardinal pairs that visit our feeders, the males look especially nice as their full red body is very highlighted against the snow. Mostly at the feeders are various finches and chickadees who live in the woods behind the house with the rare Bue Jay there to make noise like Greg liked.

Oh yeah - on Friday night I watched a huge flyover of Crows. Had to be a few hundred going home for the night just at sunset flying over the parking lot where I park. All squawking and cawing.

), bluebirds, goldfinch, house finch, red tails and many more visitors. Spend an hour on the deck and I see all of these most times.
I just had a nice trip to the gulf and caught brown/white pelicans, reddish egret, snowy egrets, little blue heron, great blue heron, bunch of tagged snowy plovers, ruddy turnstones, sanderlings, palm warbler, butter butts (please dont ban me
), skimmers, all kinds of gulls and terns. I photograph wildlife as a hobby and have some good shots. Maybe I'll get my act together and post some.

Living in a preserved Wetland
Living in a preserved Wetland habitat, there are many feathered friends around. My favorites are the various Hawk and Owl varieties.
The Superb Owls I hear, more than see. They are a bit nocturnal. A neighbor swears he saw a 'Great-Horned Owl' kicking in the door of his Chicken coop one night, and the thing was Enormous. Now, that guy doesn't drink, and I sold him Locust posts for the 'Fortress Chicken Coop' which he personally selected, and I cut to his specs. So his tale rings of Truth.
I told the guy, "It's not easy to preserve Chickens around here. Foxes, Raccoons, Coyotes will get them..."
He said "No way; I'm building the Chicken Fortress with these posts. No predators will kill them."
Couple years later, those Hens are all gone. Too bad, as I would have liked to sell the fellow more Locust posts. He wanted 12 - footers of 4" - 6" diameter for his project. I sold him a bunch of those at a reasonable price, and hoped that he would prevail with his Chicken enterprise.
The few Amateur / Hobbyist Poultry farmers I know have all lost their Birds to the Chompy local predators. Everyone has High Hopes and invests in poultry-habitat materials, but basically you need a Concrete and Cinder-Block Poultry prison, with guard-dogs.

The Flicker that started this
The Flicker that started this thread (the one?) is spending more time than ever before in the yard. I've discovered a pole about a half-block away that 2 of them peck at. They're so big compared to the rest of the birds that hang out here... the Jays are pretty big and the crows are huge, but the crows don't eat around the feeder.
There's been an influx of quite territorial small and medium sized birds around the feeder and the afternoons are full of sound. Some of them are very conversational and it makes me laugh to be out there listening.

filmed in Bodega Bay - as per Wiki
Bodega Bay has served as a location for several major films:[17][18][19]
The Birds (1963) Except for a short sequence at the beginning filmed in San Francisco, most of the film's exterior scenes were filmed around the two towns of Bodega (a small inland village) and Bodega Bay (a larger village on the bay). Special sites used for shooting included Potter School, the Bay, the two towns which were made to appear as one, and the home and barn across the bay from the town of Bodega Bay.
The Russians Are Coming, the Russians Are Coming (1966) Some scenes filmed in Bodega Bay.

The old school house is only 25 minutes or so. I usually take friends from out of town there for a photo op. I met Tippi once when she came to Bodega Bay to celebrate the anniversary of the film. Not sure what year anniversary but I don't look the same these days. She was very kind and accommodating. She had the grace of a woman from that era. Tippi signed my son's copy of The Birds, To Sean, with Fear.

Judit, The Birds is a cool & well made Hitchcock movie worth watching, and as an adult it isn't very scary or suspenseful, it's actually kind of funny, but as a kid it freaked me out and I never quite looked at birds the same way afterward.
And I've always blamed the Lovebirds.

What a great thread topic that's now several months old! Thanks Judit. I imagine that Eugene is on the bird migration highway going up the valley for the summer.
Though my very personal "spirit animals" are owls and hummingbirds (because I've had interesting encounters with each while in the forest), we haven't yet heard our neighborhood owl this season.
The hummers are back, though and this reminds me to clean out and refill the feeders... though right now they are enjoying feeding off of our pink currant flowers. Later in the season, our honeysuckle vines and crocosmia flowers. We are planting a new flower garden this year, too.
Finally, blue sky and sunshine this morn in Portland, and our high temp will be over 60, woot woot

Yeah, it should never happen. In light of all the accidental deaths I've caused when I'm staying in between the lines (i.e. bird flies into windshield or deer bolts out of nowhere), I try to be as cognizant as possible about other animals when driving. Not sure how the other birds process it, but life long mates are something we can all relate to. The book "Chesapeake" (Michener) has an interesting sub plot told from the perspective of geese that have to contend with the encroachment of humans over a few hundred years.

Speaking of Tipi Hedren, have you seen the movie "Roar", or watched the documentary "Roar, The Most Dangerous Movie Ever Made"? It's completely insane what they did. I love the part in the trailer where it says "No animals were harmed in the making of this movie, but 70 cast and crew members were". They had 150 untrained lions, tigers, cheetahs...living on their property, and they did that to make the movie. It's completely insane idea to have seen it through to actually filming it, and the documentary and movie are both worth watching for the sheer lunacy of it all.
