Cool, thanks for that fine tip sir. I just got 1,000 mealworms in the mail today to help me lure the Bluebirds. Don't tell my wife that I used one of her favorite tupperware containers to store them in the fridge...

That sounds like something I'd do. During the summer, there's usually a container of nightcrawlers somewhere on the bottom shelf. I've had even worse things in the freezer, but I won't go there...

I've taken quite a few photos of these birds over the years - both in summer and winter. Just last month I came across a handful of them in Oneida.

Here are a couple I took down in TN a few years back:

Very nice... I especially like the first shot :up:
To become truly immortal, a work of art must escape all human limits: logic and common sense will only interfere. But once these barriers are broken, it will enter the realms of childhood visions and dreams.

I agree with Sir Paige. :D
I am strong, because I've been weak.
I am fearless, because I've been afraid.
I am wise, because I've been foolish.

Beautiful shot!
