Beautiful pictures, everyone!

I've put out seed four times today, and the feeders are still packed with birds! Their feeding habits are so very heightened before a winter storm that I know we're in for some weather.

Many critters are super hungry right now; I saw four deer in a field near the road mid-day, and they weren't worried about me at all. Also saw two dozen turkeys; about half in one field, and the rest in the next.

Hawks scare our little birds into the windows and snatch them up once they're stunned. Sad

This predatory bird made the mistake of stunning itself for a bit, instead. Does anyone know which it is?
