I'd been enjoying my Baltimore Oriole feeder, multiple sightings everyday until we were sitting out on the patio, and the male came multiple times yelling at us and flying away. Now they seem to have stopped coming, hoping its just a short time before they feel comfortable about feeding there again!
Hi Sarah,
I id'ed Killdeer by saying, size of a robin, black, white and buff/brown, found on the ground, and that got me the Killdeer as first choice! Happy birding!

I live in Michigan and my favorite birds at my feeders are the Goldfinches, Hummingbirds and Woodpeckers. I provide thistle for the goldfinches, and love how they stay all year, and the males turn colors for the seasons, now that it is spring they are all turning back to that glorious yellow! Hummingbirds aren't year round here, so it is time for me to get their nectar going, sometime we briefly get Baltimore Orioles on their way up north. The Woodpeckers get the suet, that they have to share with the squirrels. It's fun to see them hanging on to get every last piece!
