Fill up the feeder and it's hours of entertainment, though might have to raise the bird feeder to keep the wild turkeys away. Had relatives in a rural coastal area that had an outdoor raccoon feeder that faced their large glass living room windows. It gave them hours of entertainment, they didn't have and didn't want a TV it was the wildlife and their books.

Hmmm, maybe that Creationist idea ain’t so terrible after all.

Only a whole lot more pleasant.

Nice! Ours has seen pheasants and peacocks, no turkeys yet.

Also, if it matters to you- for bird seed we started getting bulk sunflower seeds from a restaurant supply store- less mess and less expensive than the dedicated "no-mess" mix, and so far the birds seem to be thrilled.

We adopted a 2nd dog a week ago. That was when he saw his first cat, much less wildlife!
Luckily, the cat was raised from a kitten by a dog so he knows how to deal with them. They're OK together.
We have enough deer in suburban NJ that they are significant pests. We also have wild turkeys and geese, but no pheasants. We also have foxes and coyotes, but both are rarely seen.

At first, we were happy that we were helping them, but over time, we were afraid of the number of squirrels. Every day we saw about five or eight red squirrels there. I felt uneasy because I read that red squirrels are one of the most aggressive squirrels. I once found a squirrel in my kitchen (it had crept through an open window in the kitchen). This situation was repeated many times and each time I caught about four squirrels in the kitchen. I began to strain, and we removed the feeder from the yard, but to my surprise, the squirrels began to try to get into the house. It was getting scary, and I was forced to call treasure-coast.aaacwildliferemoval.spam/raccoon-removal]a professional wildlife removal service].

i'm currently tracking 5 of these guys. a couple of them haven't spammed yet, but they fit the profile:
nounin, katoril, leliel, arael, and dragonpost.

it's something to do, possibly more productive than arguing about politics.
