My results were similar -- almost nobody coming to the feeders at all. However, 
that has been the pattern for the last several weeks, including during our 
recent cold snap. Very odd winter so far.

Yesterday and today were Cornell Feeder watch days at home. The result is 
very unusual. We only observed 17 species, and mostly small numbers. My normal 
count over the last two seasons has been 26 to 28 species, with some species 
being irregular so the lists vary a little. We are used to having a Cooper's 
Hawk swing through and scatter everyone for a few minutes, but did not 
observe one sitting around. It would have had to have been around all day to 
cause 
the skittish bahviour. Several regulars were missing for both days. It would 
be interesting to know if anyone shared these doldrums. Ralph and Kay
