For those who don't know, I live literally a half mile from Chris, as the Sitta flies. After a week in the Victoria, BC area, I returned today and had a red-breasted nuthatch at our tube feeder (they have never come to my suet for some reason, only the black oil sunflower seed). As 10/27/12 was the first day of their arrival, ten days from now will mark FIVE MONTHS of daily visits to our back deck feeder!

I should have had them all winter. Lots of siskins still around, but I expect they'll be here through late April or early May. Chris Sloan Nashville, TN http://www.chrissloanphotography.com
