[TN-Bird] Downy, hairy & goldfinches

Good Afternoon,
 
Here in the Charlotte Park area of West Nashville in Davidson County, one  of 
my regular yard downy woodpeckers was perched on the same tree with a  hairy. 
 The hairy left shortly and headed over toward Bell's Bend across  the river.
 
Three goldfinches just came for some Niger, and the male (?) sampled the  
peanut butter...TWICE.
 
There are at least a couple of hundred starlings in my back yard.  It  
doesn't look as of there are any "nicer" black birds with them.  Lots of  
mourning 
doves, juncos, white-throateds, chickadees, titmice, a pair of  Carolina's, 
blue jays, robins, cardinals, mockingbirds, rock pigeons, house  finches, house 
sparrows and no-telling-what-all is out here just flitting back  and forth 
everywhere.
 
My squirrels have built their biggest nests ever, and their  bodies seem to 
be furrier than ever.  Cold winter??  Remember how  the lady from Crab Orchard 
(TN) used to predict severe cold when the squirrels  (and wooly worms) had 
thicker fur?
 
I keep watching my trees out back in case something REALLY good comes  in.
