Finally had a pine siskin show up at the feeder out front a few minutes ago.
Yard bird #34 since moving, can't wait till spring with all the nice variety
of trees around. The ring-necked ducks (30-40) seem to outnumber the
buffleheads in the James some mornings, but with the recent rain and current
I suppose the buffleheads are in sheltered spots out of sight when their
numbers appear lower. Not as many geese lately, and no pied-billed grebes
for several days, but they will show up when the river goes back down. The
mute swan pair just keeps showing up... Many of the ducks are avoiding the
current on the downriver ends of islands or in scattered still pockets. DC
cormorants look happy, no great blues even in sheltered spots. Have a great
day.
