Feel free to share your photos and other birding-related content here. If a photo you post isn't yours, please credit the original creator! Additionally, it would be appreciated if the location of the sighting and a date were given when a photo or question is posted. You do not have to give the precise location, something like "Northern Idaho, June 2023" or even "North-Western US, June 2023" suffices.

I've got the Netvue Birdfy with built-in AI detection and a solar panel. If you don't get the AI version, you have to pay a subscription for that feature.
It's mounted to a huge tripod meant for studio lighting, and I just installed a squirrel baffle under it. The feeder is about 8 or 9 ft in the air.
It's awesome to watch them live, or to just replay a bunch of captures at the end of the day. Cardinals are out at 5:30am, and the last birds (also often a Cardinals pair) are usually at the feeder just before sunset (around 8:30pm EST these days).
We had a family of house finch visiting and had 4 or 5 of them at the feeder at one time ๐ All those baby birds!
Here's a Chipping Sparrow from earlier today:
We had a lot of house sparrows visit, too.
