Something was really hitting the suet feeder in our backyard. I hadn’t seen any crows around recently. The answer came when I happened to see a magpie (black-billed magpie to be more precise) hammering away on it. They can devour a lot of suet in a short time! They are common in Turtle Mountains, but I seldom see them around our home.
