Giles Co. Pulaski, TN 2010 Jan. 31 This is my first post although I've been reading posts on here for a couple of years. I think I have the format right. We have about 2-3 inches of snow along with a very nice 1 inch or so coating of ice here at my house. The snow and ice brought the grackles, starlings with a few brown-headed cowbirds mixed in too. I also saw 2 red winged blackbirds today in the mix. Also saw the following male and female Northern Cardinals, White Throated Sparrows, Tufted Titmice, 1 Red Bellied Woodpecker, Slate colored Dark Eyed Juncos, Mourning Doves, House Finches, American Goldfinches, 1 White Breasted Nuthatch, Eastern Towhees and a lone Carolina Wren. My holly tree was very busy today as the ice began to melt off of the berries.Robins galore(about 30 or so anyway). Also to my delight were about 15 Cedar waxwings. 1 Eastern Bluebird joined in too.There were 2 mockingbirds trying to keep everyone chased away.
