We have at least 10 inches of snow on the ground and the birds have invaded our 
feeders. We are not used to having starlings at the feeders but yesterday and 
today we have had 500 plus at the feeders, on the ground, in the driveway and 
on the road leading to our house. 
Along with the Starlings there were blackbirds, 15+ Red-winged Blackbirds, 25 
Common Grackles, 2 Brown-headed Cowbirds and at least 12 Rusty Blackbirds.
