rootofnewtInstead of picking just the seeds it wants, the Carolina chickadee simply picks a random seed and realizing that it's not a sunflower seed, tosses it on the ground. The Chickadee will do this until it gets the seed it wants, at which point it flies away from the feeder, eats the seed, and returns to repeat the process.
In other news, the cardinals are quite miffed. The old feeder broke. Not thinking, I replaced it with a feeder that doesn't have perches. Smaller songbirds can land on the wire framework mesh, but cardinals cannot. The cardinals have not yet discovered the tray feeder. I think I'll pick up a tube feeder with perches next paycheck. The cardinals *will* eat the chickadee's castoffs, but they were very fond of the old feeder. I'll have to put something cardinal-friendly up.
