Good morning! Two-for-one special this morning on house finches. I love this spot for my #BirdBuddy, I usually catch another bird on the branch. Not the clearest pic but still cute. #backyardbirds #birdsofmastadon

Good morning! My beloved tufted titmouse has finally come back to the feeder just in time for Fall. I love all the birds, but chickadees and titmice are amongst my faves. Look how cute! (And he was sure to let me know we are out of water again!) #birds #BirdsOfMastodon #BirdWatching #BirdBuddy

My next door neighbor cat Gomez tried valiantly to defend my #BirdBuddy, but ultimately failed. The raccoon (I think?!) climbed the tree, knocked the Bird Buddy down and proceeded to gorge himself. 🤣🤦🏻‍♀️ #cats #wildlife

I'd like to thank the rain drops on my Bird Buddy's camera for causing these HORRIFYING pictures of a cardinal

Good morning! We’re testing out a new water bottle for the Bird Buddy. This black-capped chickadee seems to like it. 🥰 #birds #BirdsOfMastodon #BirdBuddy

I'll leave the #BirdBuddy inside until I get a better squirrel strategy. Or until spring, when there are more birds and I can hang it high on the balcony again.

Seriously though, it's annoying to get continuously notified that the same animal is hanging out on the feeder. Supposedly that will be fixed in a future software update.

After 54 (!) phone notifications for pictures of the same damn squirrel, I took the #BirdBuddy down. Doing this, I managed to break off some plastic and dump the entire contents of the seed container on the ground. Looking at the pile of black sunflower seed on the dirt, I guessed the squirrel accomplished his mission.

I thought this might happen. After moving the #BirdBuddy, this morning, I've had 54 pictures of squirrels. (Or maybe just 1 squirrel. 🤪

I moved my #BirdBuddy from our front stoop to a wooded common area in our complex. I've had the feeder in a couple of locations over the last 6 weeks with no photos.
Hopefully this will be a better setting and no neighbors will notice or complain.

The #BirdBuddy community on Facebook is apparently losing their minds about birds molting. 🤣 I'm seeing more reactions to the freakouts than actual freakouts, though.

(It does seem early to me, but it's certainly a thing that happens.)

Über die smarte #Futterstation für Vögel, den #BirdBuddy, haben wir hier im Blog bereits berichtet. Nun ist das #Futterhäuschen auch flächendeckend verfügbar und kann ohne Vorbestellung direkt geordert werden. Bedingt durch die verbesserte Verfügbarkeit des Bird Buddys konnten auch wir die smarte Futterstation samt #Kameramodul nun endlich selbst testen. Unsere ersten Eindrücke des Bird Buddy findet ihr hier:

We’ve never gotten an adult Woodhouse’s scrub-jay (though I see them in the yard a lot), but we’ve now gotten multiple visits to our #BirdBuddy from a juvenile (or more than one?). I wonder if the adults just don’t change their feeding habits, so now we’ll start to get this next generation moving forward.

I got a #birdBuddy and it will now be dominating my feed.

You’re welcome

That grosbeak’s kinda a jerk, but what a great little video from the #BirdBuddy!

We finally got something other than a black-headed grosbeak at the new #BirdBuddy in New Mexico! And it’s the first species to overlap with the Bird Buddy in Baltimore: a house finch.

I've been mostly skimming through the house finch results on my #BirdBuddy (there are *so many*), but this super close-up "I will investigate the camera _with my beak_" one just got me. 😆

#BirdsOfMastodon #bird

Female or juvenile house finch in a backyard feeder. At two points it gets super close to the camera, clearly pecking at it.

Oh hey! We finally got the female grosbeak on camera! Pretty sure she’s mated to the male that we’ve got a bunch of pictures of now. She’s been hanging out near the feeder, but this is the first time she’s actually stopped to eat. #BirdBuddy

A female black-headed grosbeak, photographed by a Bird Buddy smart bird feeder in front of a background of trees.

Hmm, for some reason, #BirdBuddy has started occasionally misidentifying black-headed grosbeaks as spotted towhees. We do have both here, and they are somewhat similar looking from certain angles, but the towhees have yet to visit the feeder (and I don’t think they’re likely to). Hopefully correcting it will train the AI to better distinguish between them.

A screenshot from the Bird Buddy app showing a picture of a black-headed grosbeak that it has incorrectly identified as a spotted towhee.

Already back for the fifth time this morning, possibly just to pose for the camera… #BirdBuddy
