2 American Tree Sparrows have preferred the scattered Nijer seed under my
feeders this week ,while Fox, Chipping, Wh-throated and Song sparrows seem
to prefer the white millet.A Swamp sparrow stayed in the bottomland while
Wh-crowneds only come out of the bush to the feeders when the weather is
more severe. Still no buntings or siskins.

Good birding
