Yesterday i filled my feeders for the first time since late May. This
AM at 8 o-clock I had a large flock including several TT Titmice,
many BC Chickadees, WB Nuthatches 2 Bluejays and 2 Carolina wrens.
How do they know so quickly that there is food in the feeders? Are
they watching?

Not only are they watching, they are probably checking them out on a fairly
regular basis. They see you much more often than you see them ! And as soon
as there is food, the word goes out.

Hi,
I had a visit from a Rose-breasted Grosbeak and a single Pine Siskin
at the feeder in the past two days. I also phished in a group of House
Finches. Maybe not too exciting except to me, because they came!

I birded behind my house yesterday. I saw a Purple Finch,
Flicker, Golden-Crowned Kinglet, and a female Rose-
Breasted Grosbeak. There was a flock of about fifty
Robins in the woods.
Today, I saw three crows chase a Raven right over Route 13
near Warren Road.

I just got home and was sitting on the floor of my kitchen petting my cat
while she ate (her favorite thing), and I happened to look up and out the
window toward the feeders. A junco was on the feeder and a GRAY-CHEEKED THRUSH
was perched on the railing below it, flicking its wings.

There are a goodly number of Mallards lately at Stewart Park. The strong north
winds keep them close to shore. I would think someone good with hybrids could
find at least one Mallard/Black Duck hybrid in the group.

Please don't tell me that you don't have any European House
Sparrows...I have a flock of 20 that are driving me and my other feeder
birds nuts. What to do what to do? Never thought I'd wish I owned a gun
