Bird Seeing

Dedicated to the idea that birds are worth understanding from their point of view. It should be obvious that most of my bird watching is done in a small courtyard described in The Phantom Bird Feeder. We've noted that within a species there is a wide range of behavior related to individual bird's personality. Either inadvertently or purposefully, we conduct little experiments observing the range of reactions across species and within the species.

Phantom Feeder with slight move.

We noted in an earlier post that moving a feeder 18" caused birds to fly to the former location for several attempts. We have noted now, that moving it only a foot will do the same thing. Removing it (as we sometimes do to discourage squirrels) also creates the same effect.
