Twas a good day for it:

Did an extensive evaluation of sturnus vulgaris. Observed black bills and 
yellow bills.
Sibley indicates that the yellow bill is breeding plumage. They don't know it 
is to be 
eight degrees tonight and too cold for that kind of stuff. Starlings are 
beautiful birds 
to watch on the deck from the couch.

In addition to the usual had 26 Cardinals at one time, two male tohees, but the 
best bird was a phoebe on the car port. 

Checked for the trumpeter this week. All the hangouts were frozen and did not 
see
the bird. Didn't get out of my truck either.
