Area Birders,
This morning another Pine Siskin made an appearance among the 108
goldfinches at the sunflower seed feeder in my yard. This is the third one
within a week's time.
The first Brown Thrasher of the season also showed up under the feeder this
morning. A few of these birds do overwinter in the lower valleys, but here
at an elevation of 2400 ft. we don't see them until they move in about this
time each year. A pair usually nests somewhere around the yard.
A few of the wintering 17 or so Purple Finches fed this morning as well.
Now if I could only get a few Purple Martins to set up housekeeping in my
martin house or gourds.
Enjoy the birds,
Roger Mayhorn
Grundy, VA
