(86,307 posts)I thought you might be interested in that, it's quite charming to observe. Since you have access to them and watching what they do... They absolutely LOVE bark beetles. I lived in that place for over five years, was infested indoors and out when I moved in. The next summer a huge flock moved in and cleaned up the place! They were there every day and I was truly blessed to have them provide that organic service for me. I never had much of any sign of those beetles ever again, even to this day when I go back and visit my "awesome garden" that I built.
Glad you are interested it's truly a delight to have them around, and thanks again for going to the effort of getting those wonderful pictures this morning. I have a while to wait for them to get up here above 6,000ft... we're getting about ten+ inches of snow right now but the temps are warm ~ above 0(F) at night.
I just got a new camera yesterday and I hope to have some good "stuff" to share soon, after I get oriented to all the additional features beyond what my other, older camera has.
