Birding for Fun - I totally understand that one. My front yard had many feeders too. Different feeds, heights, types, etc.
@HeatherMiller - Trust me, my wife and I have multiple feeders in our yard. If the little birdies cannot find food here, they have not flown by and looked down. : )

They must add a lovely touch of colour to an otherwise bleak landscape this time of year..they are truly lovely birds- you're lucky to have them
Be on the look out for multiple males and multiple females...Spring is near. You are a little north of me, and I'm spotting many many males and females in the yards and feeders in the past few weeks. If you care to, they love the black sunflower seeds scattered on the ground, or in a hopper type feeder. The females will also eat "small bird" mixes of seeds.
this is such a beautiful species!
