The chickadee flies up to the suet log and demands a share of the peanut butter suet.

The downy woodpecker accepts and doesn't fend off a rival for the fat. Must be having an off day.

In the December 18, 2007 Home and Garden Section of the Star Tribune, Minnesota birder Jim Williams wrote an article on chickadees and how they survive the winter. Today, December 26, 2007 TV hunting personality Ron Schara had a front page article in the Star Tribune on chickadees and how they survive the winter. Either the Star Tribune editor was ready for a Christmas break or really loves chickadees. I bet it's the latter!
