Every boomer with a bird feeder hates squirrels. I don’t understand.

      It’s native in my chunk of South America. I almost never see those but I hear them often. I know them as sanhaço, but there are a bunch of local names.

      The pepper plant is likely a wild malagueta. Almost as hot as habanero, but birds love it.

        So cool, thank you for the added detail. I was wondering if it was a random picture illustrating your point, or a local bird. It’s both! Unfortunately for me, sanhaço are never up here in Northern Canada 🙂
