The birds liked me this weekend. There are peanuts in this mix which are always the first to go followed by sunflower seeds then everything else.
Chickadees are very tame as my neighbor 1/4 mile away feeds them all year and the nuthatch was a bit more shy (photos taken without telephoto). The juncos don't let me get close at all. Some of these chickadees will hover by you and consider landing on you.

These things are too tame.
This is the follow up to the first video as the fawn's mother ran the other way behind the garage. If you turn it up you can hear the front fawn bleating.

my place deer sneaking in and out of corn 4am this morning, and turkey sneaking around just inside the brush line about 300 yards from house last night around 5pm
In a matter of days you can have chickadees eating out of your hand.They will line up to get sunflower seed.As soon as the one in your hand leaves the next in line lands ,leaves and so on.A momma chipmunk had a burrow in a small grove of trees in my side yard.I found the burrow and kept putting sunflower seed in it.Just poured a handful right in the hole.In less then a week this little critter would come to the edge of the trees and chirp at me for treats.If I missed her for a day I'd sit in a lawn chair and chirp for her.She'd come to the edge of the trees,look around,make sure the coast was clear and run over to me,climb up my leg and into my lap.First thing was give me a nip on a finger then rub each cheek on a finger,stuff face and charge back to her burrow.This went on for 3 summers before she died.
I'm in a buck only zone and you guessed it, all I've see is does and fawns since opener.
And a few others 
NICE pic's steve.. you do have some snow hey ! were all brown and the wood is still dry and easy to find.
It's starting to settle now but on Saturday evening it was nearly knee deep in the woods. Tomorrow is going to be azz cold, about -3 overnight then warm up into the weekend.
I shared this pic once on the site, can't remember which thread. We got more snow after this.
Chickadee spread. I love how they keep switching angles to size you up.
That last pic really turned out nice. Usually cell phone shots are just blurry wings.

The first winter in the house we are in now we were visited by around half dozen Ptarmigan & the winter was a really harsh one that was 2004 not seen any since then until today when two turned up. I wonder if we are in for a bad winter this year

I've been playing with my bird feeders too. Got all the little tweety birds, Bluebirds, Gold and Purple Finches, Nuthatches and Chickadee's, Cardinals and Bluejays. Last week had a Sharp Shinned Hawk land in the tree over my feeders. A couple days ago I saw my first Rose Breasted Grosbeak, then the next day we had 2. Now I'm trying to get a couple Orioles to come by. I feed the squirrels too, they crack me up falling off stuff.
Evening visitor’s ...
Just some eyes out 400 yards or so. too dark to tell what they belonged to. Pups were barking about 3:30am , reason for investigation.
Two male pike escorting a larger female
A small pike (we call them “hammer handles”) lying in wait for dinner. People say pike are daytime fish but this guy was definitively waiting for a midnight snack.
