@EmpyClaw they are very distrustful. It took me about three years to get to the point where the two at my old house would sit in plain view. They always hid behind things to talk to me. Eventually they started coming to the back door to call to me and we ended up having a daily chat. They still wouldn't come with 15-20 feet. They are cautious and way smarter than we think. It takes time. If you repeat their calls and match both the rhythm and number of their calls they will start to talk to you

@Langhamian I’ll give this a go this winter. Last year I think they got sick of me. I remember walking by one day, just as they were approaching. One landed and I swear it was calling to say “Jeez, this guy again!” before flying off.
