My suet cakes that I had ordered for the birds to eat arrived today. Got two boxes. Wanted to be set for any bad weather and am almost out on the ones at home. Don't want my feathered friends to go hungry.

I tip my hat to you.

There used to be out of Norfolk, Va. each year but that will no longer be. It was near the airport & an eagle got killed by a plane last year so they have dismantled the nest. It could cause a plane crash also so a bad situation either way.

This cute little guy(?) was diving bombing my daughter-in-law and me as were standing in the driveway yesterday. When I grabbed my phone and tried to take a picture it came right up to the camera like a humming bird, but it was to close to photograph. I looked in nearby plants for a nest or something and didn't find anything that it may have been trying to protect.

Can anyone identify the bird?

I'm pretty sure it's an Eastern Phoebe Sue but you've posted to a thread from 2012 so I don't know how many answers you might get. You may wish to re-post it over here:

I can't see the wings to see if it has the distinct wing bars of the Eastern Phoebe but it sure looks like a Phoebe and they are found in Texas! Here are a couple of photos from the Audubon website for comparison:
