[00:00:00]All right, time now for the final Birdy 30 of this Sunday morning and we're going to be showing you some fun action happening at the bird feeder. Look at this red-bellied woodpecker holding its ground. It was like, "Sorry, Mr. Mrs. Starling, you are not getting any bit of this." This is a female. You'll look at the gray crown that it has. If it had all red, that would be the male. So, that's the way to identify. So, this hot pepper seed and fruit cylinder, it's going to attract those birds, but it's going to deter bears and squirrels and raccoons. So, they find it undesirable.

[00:00:38]But, look at this. I mean, that red-belly's like, "Heck no, you are not getting any of this." You never know what you're going to see in your backyard, especially if you have cameras up. Happy birding, everyone. We'll have much more on that rain chance for today coming up in a 15 minutes.
