I love the internet! I wouldn't know otherwise. I need to find out which bird chirps, "Rick ee!" I've read that it's the Western Meadowlark but I haven't seen the bird when I hear the noise.

You might be describing the Black-capped Chickadee's call. It's a high pitched "richEEE" sound. A bird that loves my bird feeder.

Nope. The sound is not close. It truly sounds like Rick eee. It's once, loud and not repeated for at least 10 seconds. I saw someone else did a search for the same thing on the internet but if all the answers she got , none of them sounded like Ricky.
I bought a second seed catcher/hoop. This AM I noticed a grackle feeding in it...., however, I saw a cardinal and a titmouse feeding in the other one, that made up for the grackle. I put out an additional thistle bag as well. Gotta keep the buffet line moving along.
My first hummer showed up this evening! I have proof but I have to get out my card reader for the SD card. Well, crappy cellphone through the dirty window, for now.
BTW, the Rick eee bird is out there somewhere. I hear it calling Ricky and that'a all. Just Rick eee!
