BUTU in the oven (Butterball turkey ;-) and even though there is a heavy mist 
in Chester the yard is loaded with birds. A Yellow-bellied sapsucker has been 
stationed at the suet all morning and doesn't even budge when a Ruby-crowned 
kinglet flits in for a nibble. More cardinals than I ever care to band carpet 
the ground and all the usual backyard birds are feasting on cracked corn, 
thistle and sunflower. A flock of Canada Geese honked over the roof and a 
Red-shouldered hawk called overhead when I dashed down to get the newspaper.

Happy Thanksgiving,
Julie K.
