Just ordered sesame chicken for lunch. I hope they don't drown it in sauce.

Have had them under the suet block feeders on more than few occasions. Past couple years there has been 3 of them that frequent my feeders. Very cool birds

I've only had the one that landed in one of my pines last year. I thought it was a crow at first until it flew and I saw the white on its wings.

Their calls, or screams, are very cool. It's scary if you don't know what it is. My buddys wife almost jumped out of her skin when one flew up and let one out. In her defense, the feeders are pretty close to my deck.

Here's the last best pic of 1 eating at close range.
