They were doing both. That tree had a ton of berries on it this year and when the seeds ripened the birds had it stripped clean in about 1 week .

We have an above-ground goldfish pond in our back yard. A mink visits us on occasion. Nikon D850 wearing a 400mm f/2.8 VR lens.
We have a lot of bold raccoons as well - so one evening I set up 3 studio strobes around the bird feeders. Nikon D850 wearing a 70-200 f/2.8e FL lens. (3) Einstein strobes.

Not out my back door, but actually came inside our house!! This King Parrot is obviously very used to humans and must get fed around the area as this guy dec ided to fly into our house and sit atop my grandsons toy kitchen set. I just happened to have my Z7II + 50 f1.2S nearby and took a few shots whilst he sat there posing. In order to get him to go back outside, I put some birdseed in a wooden bowl and he gladly jumped on and I carried him and the bowl back outside!
He is now a regular visitor to our home, but we feed him outside.
Here are some other shots of visitors to our house.

Back after a long layoff due to a minor stroke. Mobilty and co-ordination gradually improving now that the snow is gone and I can get out in the yard without risking a fall.
