We were in West Virginia last week so I have nothing to add personally about birds feeding on Devil's Walkingstick. We did have a wonderful cabin in the mountains there but we saw 0 birds outside of the cabin, a rude surprise to say the least. There was a Devil's Walkingstick about 100 yards from our cabin but we saw no birds on it. However that means little given that we only say 1 bird within 100 yards of the cabin, a House Wren.
Robin, one of the neighbors who regularly birds Carpenter's Woods, did report a Wilson's Warbler feeding on DW there while we were gone. One more feeding warbler for the list and an unusual one at that!
Keeping track of American birds that feed on Devil's Walkingstick. Erroneously dubbed by some as an invasive there are many people in the field who see day after day that it is a very important shrub for birds. This blog tries to document that. The current feeding bird tally is always here. New entries can be added by leaving comments with any of the posts below.
