I'm next, I'm next!

I looked out the family room window a few days ago and watched Little Chiggy waiting in line for a sunflower seed at the new feeder. He really is eyeing the other bird, and paused for several seconds until it left.

I'm next, I'm next, I'm next...my turn!

When I cropped the first photo down, I noticed how worn his little feathers were. I don't know how to tell if this is a juvenile who will have a small molt in the spring, but if he's an adult, he definitely is going to need to upgrade those feathers this summer!
