Well, there is a pair of chicadees in my backyard who *expect* me to hand
feed them sunflower seeds every time I go outside. If not, I get a whole
barrage of noises thrown at me! Not to mention the attempts at landing on
my head...

But on the other hand (no pun intended...) they will eat out of anyones
hand as long as there are some sunflower seeds on it. Visitors think it
is great!
