The Merlin app is not allowing me to download any bird pack, just says none available (in my area of any area). Anyone else have this issue?

Is your location (and wifi) on?
Did you try to select "all" and search for your area?
I just tried downloading a random pack and it worked.
I only paid 15% by switching to dansdeals

The deep woods would be more accurate, upper Wisconsin.

How about "boondocks"? That should cover it all.

The Boondocks Saints is a great movie...

Is your boondocks near Boonville Missouri?

Today, while on a conference call, a red tailed hawk landed on the tree outside my window. I've only seen them flying high above before!

Gray catbird - this guy shows up every summer for about a week, hangs around on the same spot on top of the feeder, and then moves on:



Happy summer everyone. He showed up today, let's see how long he'll stick around for this year.

Here's a whole setup, feeders included, for $30! Great deal or junk?

That's an insane price. Even if it's junk, it'll last one season for sure... And even if one or two feeders break it's still a great deal.

I'd buy that sight unseen.

If you're putting that in a yard, Google how to make a DIY squirrel baffle.

Any recommendations for a non-DIY one? I see a bunch on Amazon.

Looks like there are only two choices: ineffective or ugly
