Oh yes, red-winged blackbirds (which is what I call 'em) are lovely. I've seen them with gold as well but don't remember where or when.

The niftiest bird I ever had show up at my feeders was a painted bunting. I just stood there and stared for as long as he was there.

I'd had a female visiting and couldn't figure out what it was due to her subtle coloring.

But yes, lots of cardinals and blue jays. They're abundant and cheeky. Down in Oklahoma there were times that I had more than a dozen cardinals at the feeders at one time. They weren't very good at sitting still for pic to be taken.

Standing from my corner, I can see both feeders so it's not a horrible punishment. *grin*
