Hi Cobirders. I started using my bird feeders Sun.
Monday October 24th Merlin stopped in the Chokecherry tree briefly
no birds so it flew to the Russian Olive
and I lost it. Probably
same one that I saw a week earlier flying into my subdivision.
Later two Gray-headed
Juncos came. They do not go near the cage feeder.
Tuesday October 25th House Finches several discovered the Sunflower
Seeds in the Cage Feeder.
Wednesday Oct. 26th 4 t0 5" of snow on everything and more all day.
Now lots of birds came I put out seed on the
patio edge and in the
feeder by the window. I got feed out to cable drum feeder Thursday.
House Finches male and
female about 12
House Sparrows about 20
Gray-headed Junco same 2
White-crown Sparrow 2
they come mostly when it snows and use the feeder only.
Thursday October 27 7" snow, 20% cloudy, 29o - 48o Same birds as
yesterday more of Finches and House Sparrows.
Pinyon Jay 2 ( first ever
in yard)
Blue Jay 1
Red-winged Blackbird small
flock of First and second year birds
Black-capped Chickadee
likes to get Sunflower seed from in the cage feeder.
R.S. Flicker 1st year
out in front yard.
Eurasian Collared Dove 24
atop the dead branches in the Locust tree in front.
Friday away much of the day
Sat. away until 12:30PM Saw a Black-billed Magpie in front yard Do
not come often here. Lots in nearby cemetery.
Sunday Oct.30th Western Scrub Jay (also showed up Tuesday
Nov. 1 and stayed longer)
Of course most of Finches ,House Sparrows, Red-wings and doves will
show up every day . I do not feed after
sometime in May because I want them to go nest elsewhere. A
surprise bird shows up occasionally..
Hope you all keep warm out birding.
