Continuing THOMO's LG feeder, and including other cams as per title.
First, some LG feeder snaps & vids from the past couple of days.
Female & male GSWs, joined up by trickery - you may notice that the peanut tube is misshapen
Nasty Great Coal Tit:
No trickery for the 2 Blue Tits:
Now for the torture - I just cannot figure out Greenfinch or female Chaffinch:
This was in flight so has had to be sharpened a lot:
Little vid:
No mistaking the evening Crestie!

Lots of salads were set out for the Ground Squirrels (plus more peanuts for the Scrub Jays and seeds for the other birdies):
That night, a coyote sniffed at and scent marked the salad. I know it's not a perfect view but it's the best there was, the coyote turned it's body/head while cocking its leg, so it looks very awkward.
These birdies are the first to arrive every morning, lately. I've not got around to asking what they are.
After a big clean-up by our hosts, the doves, mainly, take over (they returned after the panicked dispersal):

I was surprised to find this cam back online, no idea how long it's been going. My brief look has found most of the usual suspects there, here's a little look at the Evening Grosbeaks:
A very interesting assortment Thanks Scylla. You've been working hard here.
Not nearly as many Pine as Evening Grosbeaks:
The North American Great or Coal Tit - Chickadee - often first in and last out
Yay, my fave - Canada or Gray Jay - I'm wondering if this was a youngster, it's not quite marked as I remember, shade-wise:
Next morning I despaired of getting clear views of the little flocks of Common Redpoll, you know how camouflaged they are on the seed tray - so here's a grainy corner close-up:
Have run out of steam so am saving a surprise (to me, anyway) video for next acrive session

Surprise, because I thought the Flying Squirrels were hibernating! This one had a false start
There was a second, shorter session, eating further back on the tray - before the snow.
Testing the first of the month status, it usually starts around 03:00 - it's pretty seized up now but not nearly as bad as sometimes... yet!
Glaslyn:
Was very, very slow when I tried about half eleven but cleared back to normal after lunch! We haven't had it so bad for the last couple of months so thought it was resolved, bit of a shock this morning!

That's even more appreciated than usual it took me blooming ages and ages to do, I'm getting too old for this.
EDIT - the frustration of trying to add the weedy arrows, especially in the right direction, in WindowsMovieMaker led me to installing Openshot video editor - but that has its own failings so it's had to be uninstalled, entailing even more agony and angst
At least you try all these different editors Scylla, don't know how I'd cope without AZ, debut & Win MM!
I admire your tenacity!
