American Tree Sparrow at window feeder on 1/14/2012
Back in June, I entered a contest over at The Nemesis Bird to try and win a Double Tray Window Bird Feeder by Wild Birds Unlimited. Well, I ended up winning the contest and finally got the feeder up on my bedroom window. I have a few other feeders placed in front of my window, in which birds have been occupying for some time now. Until Saturday afternoon, I have never observed a bird using my Double Tray Window Bird Feeder. When I walked into my room, an American Tree Sparrow was feeding and was unaware of my presence. This gave me time to grab my camera and snap a few photos. Since then, a number of birds have been utilizing this wonderful feeder including American Goldfinches and Dark-eyed Juncos. There has been one “dominant” American Tree Sparrow whom feels the need to defend the feeder when others come near.
