[va-richmond-general] Re: Golden-crowned Kinglet abundance

  Yes!!  Saw many at Rockwood Park this weekend, they are a site to behold!  
Watched several of them fluttering around the holly trees, presumably gleaning 
berries, blooms and the odd insect.  Where did you see the Kinglets, Wendy?

    Has anyone else noticed the relative abundance of Golden-crowned Kinglets 
this winter?  Usually I find Ruby-crowneds to be much more common, but this 
year it seems to be reversed.

    Also, I wonder what the birds know that we don't, about the impending 
storm.  This afternoon my feeders were mobbed.  There were even several 
White-throated Sparrows at the feeder and picking the berries off the 
Pyracantha.
