Nice job!! Are you a fiddler, or violinist? Or just fixed it up for someone else?

Thanks! I'm no fiddler but can make scratchy noises on it even my cat cannot abide. I bought it to fix and sell ... this one is probably from about 1905, German or Bohemian, original pegs (which means nothing, but I thought it cool, like if you buy a used truck which has all three original keys and the paint color tag), $80 strings, new bridge, close action, somewhat thick, tight-grained, never cracked top.

Lady cardinal, nesting and very territorial just now. Spends her days pecking at her rivals reflections in glass-car windows, house windows. Yesterday, she was feeling frustrated in the rain, as there were no rivals to go after.

I haven't been keeping track, but isn't that the same green Jag that is there every month?

Zo6 is it the motion of the bird that sets off the camera ? or the heat from the body ?
if the feeder swings in the wind , will that activate the camera?
