Hi All, With light snow falling today and the temperature dropping to below freezing the bird numbers increased around the feeders. There were 34 Pine Siskins, a high count for us this year. I'm not sure I want the 350 - 400 that David Raines and Ed and Mary Talbott are getting. Other interesting visitors were a Brown Thrasher, 4 Purple Finches, 3 Eastern Towhees and a pair of Red-bellied Woodpeckers. Following is the complete list.
