I was away when the hard frost hit our area and it wiped out the Celosia and 
sweet basil planted near my feeder.  I restocked the feeders yesterday (they 
had been left empty over the summer) and this morning, I found that several 
Juncos and Yellow-rumped Warblers were also feeding on the Celosia and basil 
seed heads.  First time I'd left these plants in the ground after frost, and I 
hadn't realized they would be so attractive - and also saves my having to clear 
them out now!
