For the past three winters a Loggerhead Shrike periodically arrives at my
feeders. He doesn't eat from the feeders, he just enjoys terrorizing the
finches. He showed-up yesterday morning while it was still snowing and stayed
around for about an hour. Also, the daggone Starlings and R-W BBs have been
flocking in and devouring my dog's food to the extent I've had to take it up.
Below are photos from yesterday of the Shrike and a Starling freezing his
feathers-off...
Enjoy,
