Ok I've ran jelly feeders 4 years now and have had the normal jelly eaters. Orioles,house finches,cat birds and even hummers at the feeders.
This year I have some, what I'll call non-jelly eaters.
Robins and Red bellied peckers!!
Is this something other people have seen??
WISH I HAD MORE TIME TO TRAP!

No, but I saw a crested caracara yesterday on a beaver job. Was pretty awesome! No Caracara's here but they are cool!

I get Robin's and red bellies at my grape jelly. The red bellies are hilarious to watch,they twist their heads sideways and get a big beak full. Look like they're going to roll over. Also get red breasted grossbeaks

I bet those jelly feeders draw lots of stinging insects as the season progresses. Mostly ants at the jelly, stinging insects love the humming bird feeders
