Here too but not as many. We've had 2 Grackles, 7 Red-winged Blackbirds, 7 Brown-headed Cowbirds and 1 Rusty Blackbird. No Starlings so far. I don't remember ever seeing cowbirds here this time of year.
We had at least 5 inches of snow and so much wind it's hard to tell exactly how much snow.

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.Tom & Laverne Hunter Russell County Bird Club Lebanon, VA
