I almost never see Pine Warblers where I’m at, and they’re typically super high up in their namesake tree haha. Good luck! 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have you tried suet when they're in season? Here, I get PIWAs coming to suet all winter. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m probably gonna end up handholding for the flexibility, but I know it is a little heavy. Let me know how it goes and please post your photos, as I’m getting mine in a few weeks now. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Man, I wish. I’ve never had any warblers on suet that I can remember, but PIWA are seriously uncommon in my county for some reason. They don’t breed here, and I’ve only observed 4 in the past two years during migration. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s a little heavy but definitely manageable. The tradeoff of having 600 mm is WELL worth it. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Butter butts too, along with a bunch of non-warbler species. It's worth a try. $5 for cake and a cheap cage.

It's rare to get a warbler on the suet up here. I think they prefer insects in the warmer months. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Connor Cochrane Posted November 1, 2021 Share Posted November 1, 2021 I've never had any of the local breeding warbler species come to my suet feeders, but Townsend's Warbler visit pretty frequently during the winter. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Argg - I had that last week - brought on by lack of sleep, aka the baby waking up every hour all night for 3 or 4 days in a row and not napping well during the day either 😣😪 You youngsters get your sleep while you can - from a guy who didn't take his chance but instead worked 80 hours and still found time for a life, just no sleep. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did a class today, it was supposed to take me two hours, it took me 4 minutes. Yes, that is right 4, FOUR minutes. It was two pages, both of which would easily fit on the monitor at once, and you see all the text. Most of the classes have been similar to that though, but not any as bad as this. I know someone must have passed a law saying you have to have a certain amount on hours to get a drivers license, but seriously? Surely you can come up with enough material to at least be reasonable?
