I've always wanted to try the jelly feeders, but just never did. These pictures of yours have me seriously reconsidering! I especially love that second shot of the Oriole - beautiful captures, @melinda010100! And thanks again for hosting the #featheredfriday tag - !tip steem
The downside with the jelly feeders is that they do attract ants and bees. But I love having the birds come so close to the windows.
Beautiful shots, I love those orioles! Here's my link:

Thanks! The orioles add a lot of color during the summer. Hard to believe they will be leaving in a few weeks.
So many beautiful birds coming to your feeders, Melinda. I never knew about the jelly they like until you mentioned it.

There are a lot of different birds who enjoy fruit! Love your Blue Jay's. That mama Jay seems quite proud of her youngsters!
Awwwwwwwwwwww, they are all so beautiful! I was talking to my daughter about bird feeders for her new house and she agreed to get some. Yeaaaah!!! I will need your advice probably. I also tried to capture Red Cardinal, but he was too far. I saw his mate too. It seems they like mulberries at one of the properties around the corner.

You would think with the number of people walking past that there would be a few more that are aware, wouldn't you? Hope you get some more good photos tomorrow!
There is not that many people walking there. This is very quiet neighbourhood. The mulberries belong to one property. They have white and black.
I have a young mulberry tree in my back yard and it is fun to see how many critters are attracted to it. I didn't know that there were white ones!
I learned that only since I live here, lol. But your place is a paradise for critters Melinda 😍
It would be a great way to bring nature up close for the boys to watch! My advice would be to look for a Wild Birds Unlimited store and let them make feeder suggestions. They will be able to answer questions and help you accomplish what you are hoping for. It's disappointing if your feeders get over run with sparrows and squirrels, and they will be able to give you valuable tips.
Oh! Thank you so much Melinda! That is a very valuable advice 💖😊💖
Even if you don't purchase a feeder from them, take advantage of their birding wisdom!
Beautiful Birdies!
I added some black borders to your street name... if you want to use it.
Nice! Thanks so much for creating this!
What a lovely collection of birds to share today Melinda, my bird feeder the birds escape into the trees before I am able to even get a photograph. Fruit and seed feeders unfortunately raided by monkeys, so rely on being out on walks for photography more than at home. My entry for today:

Keeping monkeys out of the feeders would be even more challenging than keeping squirrels out! Thanks for sharing your birds with us!
Squirrel'ing problems sound like fun too.

Fantastic photos for #featheredfriday! Really up close and personal Pelican photos!
Thank you Melinda. They are very entertaining to watch. 😊
Ugh! not the robins! Did they build a nest in the stupidest spot possible? The other birds are all pretty, though. Always fun to see the dinosaurs!
Robins tend to give meaning to the term 'bird brain' but they are pretty amazing when it comes to searching for nightcrawlers!
Looks like you are in a very nice area. Beautiful flowers and beautiful feathered birds visiting.
Out of all the places I have traveled in the world, I am always happy that this is the place I get to call home.
