While walking around outside the house in my patch here for GBBC, I found ‘my’ Red-breasted Nuthatch near the front yard. It was going in & out of last summer’s hanging oriole nest & tooting the whole time! Then it visited the feeder & snagged a peanut.
Just after this, I found a juvenile Yellow-bellied Sapsucker in the trees over a little stream! At the back deck after I came inside to warm up, I saw that 1 of ‘my’ 2 Carolina Wrens had discovered the mealworms I just put out in a small hanging tray used for jelly in summer! And the 44 Mourning Doves obligingly showed up, so the GBBC is off to a good start.
