Area Birders,
20 PURPLE FINCHES  showed up at my feeders today here in Buchanan County. A 
couple of PINE SISKINS competed with the GOLDFINCHES for the thistle seed. 4 
COMMON GRACKLES bullied their way in and fed for awhile,before a bigger bully, 
a gray squirrel ran them away. 2 female RED-WINGS were with the Grackles.
On a short walk around my trail I found another SWAMP SPARROW, several SONG and 
WHITE-THROATED SPARROWS as well as a few CHIPPING SPARROWS. A couple of 
RUBY-CROWNED KINGLETS fed low in the trees. One fed within about 4 feet of me 
and gave me a chance for some good photos.

Enjoy the birds,

Roger Mayhorn
