  3. I think I'll start making my own suet and sell it on Amazon instead of trying to resell your suet, but thanks for considering me as an alternative to you serving jail time all the same.
  4. After a quick search of the nearby Canadian Tire store, I see no reason to pay more than a couple bucks per suet cake when they have individual cakes for as cheap as $1.25 on sale and 3 packs for $6.99 regular price. $2-$3 per cake seems to be the average amongst their selection, which I think is a fair price. $5 or more for a suet cake would bring an end to my suet feeding pretty quickly.
  5. MJ was shopping online for some suet this morning when she questioned me about the $30+ delivery charge on her $30+ box of suet that she had previously added to her cart earlier this week. Since our Amazon Prime account is in my name and includes free delivery on most items, I told her I'd order it. I typed the name in the search and brought up the exact same product, 20 mixed jumbo suet cakes for $103.77cdn....(pause)... Did your jaw just drop to the floor? Mine did. I was sure there was an error so I started looking at other prices, that was a mistake. I almost puked when I saw a single suet cake priced at $13.95cdn, that works out to $43.59/kg or $26.39/lb., simply ridiculous!!! As much as we complain about the rising cost of food, I guess we should be grateful that suet isn't part of our diet. https://www.amazon.ca/Armstrong-Royal-Jubilee-Birders-Choice/dp/B0813SWKFJ/ref=mp_s_a_1_20?crid=QV2QWMWJJHRL&keywords=suet&qid=1701519938&sprefix=suet+%2Caps%2C298&sr=8-20 I think I'll shop locally for my suet or consider making my own for the winter, I'm definitely not buying into that ripoff.

  9. I'm not sure what to think of this bird. To my eyes, the beak looks like it flows from the forehead and doesn't look like it's small or jutting from the face, leaning Cooper's. The toes look tiny though which suggests Sharpie. Big and small features are often subjective so neither of those is really conclusive for me. The tail shape is a strong indicator more toward to Sharpie, but the reverse graduation looks off even for a Sharpie. Tail moult having an effect perhaps? This linked photo, https://www.allaboutbirds.org/guide/Coopers_Hawk/photo-gallery/305686581 shows a Cooper's Hawk with a similar tail shape, but the beak looks small and jutting off the bird's face to my eyes, clearly indicating that I can't judge beak size/shape. As I said at the beginning, I don't know what to think of @dragon49's bird. Shooper's Hawk for me, or maybe a Carpie Hawk, I DON'T KNOW.

  12. I guess I'll have to wait until next year to see my name on that list. Beautiful murmuration photo that should be called 'A Hummingbird Murmuration' instead of 'Starling Murmuration'.

  18. Even if you only save a handful of photos a week, the accumulation of them over time makes searching for specific images just as much of a headache. Because I never tagged my photos at the beginning and now have an overwhelming number of photos saved, I get that headache weekly when searching for species of the week photos. I've started tagging some of them but it's a tiny fraction compared to the untagged photos. To put a positive spin on it though, I get to revisit many photos that still put a smile on my face while I'm searching.
