Oh Sure, they came to EAT...but I know what they were REALLY after!....

I have had a ton of different birds at our feeder lately.

Chickadees, mourning doves, grosbeaks, redwinged blackbirds, woodpeckers, and bluejays mostly.

They come to eat our yummy smorgasboard of sunflower seeds and seed and suet.

Or so they say...

but I know they are REALLY just there for a photoshoot.

They can't fool me.

They are conceited.

She's saying:

"Well, don't you think I am beautiful enough to get on your blog?"

"Just look at my profile!":

"What exactly do you MEAN: I am not THAT special?":

Wait.

I'll win her over with my talents.

"See? I can balance a snowflake on my beak.

NOW can I get onto your blog?":

"NO. no. Pick ME! Look how I stand out amongst the apples!":

"Oh for goodness sake. You two aren't so special. Now ME....that's another story.

I am one of the few redwinged blackbirds left in these parts this winter. THAT makes ME blogworthy":

"Pshhtt. I am prettier. Look at my ski mask glasses and my yellow coloring against the snow!":

"Isn't that JUST like a male? He's not that special, trust me. I dated him once":

"Well, I have yellow AND red in my feathers, so there!":

So, a conference was held:

"Who do you think WON?":

"We both did!":

And everybody was happy.

They flew off into the sunset:

Until tomorrow's battle at the birdfeeder.....
