The colors are awesome for the people who know how to have their camera set. Here's a couple from a Facebook friend that lives about 20 miles away

Camera settings definitely helps but most of the good photos take a bit of editing too.

We alway take ours down in Northern Wisconsin around labor day.  We still had a few around then but read that you should take them down then so they leave to go South

I have always been told to leave them up for birds that are still migrating south from further to the north. :dunno:

We do usually get a few late ones but they don't stick around. They spend some time feeding and are gone.

I'm pretty sure most birds know when it's time to get the fuck out of town before it gets any colder. :lol:

I usually leave the feeders up a while for the flights coming through. I read to where they leave when they feel the food supply is almost tapped out, then they are gone.

lol Looks reachable from standing in a pickup bed

Even better.  Maybe if they backed up to it over the ditch and dropped the gate.  Pretty deep ditch.  I didn't stay to examine the "crime scene", I just stopped, snapped a pic and laughed.  You just know it's up there because this has happened before.  :lol: Must be one of those "aggressive liberals" dead set to show the country folk who is right!  He should confront them next time!

Imagine getting beaten to death over this.

The fact that thing was hand built off original blueprints is badass. Albany was awesome with the prairie tractor feature this year.

They had something about this on Weather.com the other day. It's a comet.

If you missed it, you can see it again in 80,000 years.
