A male feeding a female, after doing the work of removing the sunflower seed’s shell. They did this twice within about 40 seconds.

Does anyone know what this thing is or how it formed?!! Mass of pine needles about 10inches at the widest point. Seems to be a habitat for tiny things like snails and freshwater shrimp and things like that. There were four or five of them. I’m so curious!!!

This is probably the same bird that has visited for the 3rd consecutive day now: my new friend. My cat was sitting quietly staring as well near the window. This series of photos tells a story. I feel that it is important to highlight it once again to show the recurrence of its visits and behaviour.
When I first looked out the window, it was on the railing of the deck in the Eunonymus bush that has tiny red berries. I think it spotted me slowly getting my camera and flew up to the nearby bush just a little further down the deck. I was rewarded with many poses again. This time it did a few wing uplifts as demonstrated in photo 5. It then flew back down to the Eunonymus where it retreived some berries but would look up occasionally to make sure it was safe. It then flew back to the taller shrub and curiously was seen to be spitting out some debris several times. Unfortunately, the branches were in the way so could not get a clear photo of this event. What a fascinating bird! Hoping it hangs around and serenades me with its potential hundreds of borrowed songs.

Second photo shows the female with a male (only part of the latter’s body is in the frame, unfortunately). Could be the same male as in previous observation.
