["mayhorn" <mayhorn@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Area Birders,
With 5 inches of snow and strong winds the birds fed heavily today at the 
feeders. The bare cherry tree was decorated with 27 cardinals as 3 Fox Sparrows 
fed with 3 Eastern Towhees 34 Red-winged Blackbirds, 3 White-throated Sparrows, 
4 Song Sparrows and 15 Mourning Doves.
5 Eastern Bluebirds came in for their daily meal of meal worms. They rushed in 
to gobble about 30 of them down quickly almost before I had stepped away from 
the feeding tray. They then sat on the side of the tray in the wind, waiting 
for more. I put out more worms, and they gobbled those down. They seemed really 
hungry, and within an hour I went out a total of 4 times to feed them. They 
certainly have me well trained. 
Enjoy the birds,
