I don't have 1000s as with Bill Mcaneny's E. Starlings, but regularly now, since it has gotten winter cold, I have at my feeders and food on the ground 60-70 AMERICAN GOLDFINCHes and about 35 or more MOURNING DOVES, as well as the other usual suspects at feeders (in fewer numbers). Along with the lone Red Squirrel and at least 10 Gray Squirrels. I may have had a single RUSTY BLACKBIRD last week!
Wish some of the neighbors would pitch in and buy some of the bird seed it takes to keep this zoo going!
