Bathing suit first: How lucky I got! I've not bought a bathing suit in 15-20 years, and the first one I buy (over the net, no less) and it's perfect. It's the oddest bathing suit I ever saw, but perfect -- if I had known it existed, I would have gone looking for one just like this

I love how they peck at the feeder. So silly! It's plastic! But at least that lets me know that they've arrived. Then they take one of the sunflower hearts over to the fence and peck it there for a while.

We have a metal feeder and the little birdbrains--including the nuthatches and chickadees--peck at that, too! In our case, it's usually just when the feed is nearly gone and they desperately want the last couple sunflower seeds stuck in the middle of the feeder. I'm not sure what they could be trying to accomplish at your place. (If it's new, maybe it's reflective enough for them to see movement/"another bird"?)

And nope, it's red plastic. (Though the sides are clear plastic, maybe that acts reflective sometimes?) I don't know why they do it, but I'm glad they do. It's loud enough (when my window is open), that I can hear and know to go watch them.
Edit: Oh, huh, we don't have chickadees in this area. They don't come this far south on the west coast.

Niger seed lovers are chickadees, goldfinches, most finches, and sparrows.
I'm envious that you found a swimsuit that works for you. Not that it's ever warm enough here to swim outside, mind you, but last time I bought a suit, it was an hour of humiliation followed by settling for the least horrible one.

My big bag of sunflower hearts and cores arrived, so I'm back to feeding that. Everyone loves that (sadly including the squirrels).
I got reeeealy lucky with the swimsuit. I'm looking forward to trying it out!
