The pine warbler said to the chickadee, keep going!! This is my mealworm bowl, you can see in the last photo the chickadee got one from the other feeder.

Yes it’s okay, you can go for it. A pine warbler looks at me as if to ask if it’s okay 🤓 to have mealworms.

Post mating bliss, the female is on the right and male on the left. I didn’t catch them in the act 🤣 cause my camera was on the owls.

Sorry about the shake. It was really windy and I rarely shoot video. Mom was shielding her owlets from the strong winds today. It’s supposed to be even worse tomorrow.
