I had a great day, and quite a joyous surprise at my feeders. At most in the
past, I've only seen glimpses of a Carolina Chickadee around, and I've only
seen a Tufted Titmouse once. Today, I had 2 of each at my feeders, and I about
died! I tried to get pics, but my fiance had the camera in his truck.
8 DE Juncos
1 male cardinal (saw the female yesterday)
2 Carolina Chickadees
2 Tufted Titmice
5 American Goldfinches (have seen up to 10 this winter at my feeders)
5 Mourning Doves (have seen up to 10+)
30+ European Starlings
2 White-Throated Sparrows (have seen a third around)
20-30 House Sparrows
A couple things I'm disappointed in....I haven't seen any House Finches for
many, many months. And I haven't seen any of the Fox Sparrows like I had this
time last winter.
Happy birding!
