getting the stinkeye

I'M GETTING DIRTY LOOKS from the piggy birds. I have throngs of goldfinches, house finches, sparrows, pine siskins, the occasional grosbeak, starlings and crows of course, but they ground feed. Oh, and the quail who are becoming numerous. I have a feeder which holds a gallon of seed, and they're so gluttonous that I have to fill it daily. My neighbor told me we could have a substantial winter...the animals are fatter, the acorns are starting to drop, but it was 80° today, and absolutely gorgeous. So we're not done yet!
