While we've had at our feeders all winter plentiful numbers of finches and siskins, chickadees, titmice and white-breasted nuthatches, I've observed the following just showing up one at a time: - Red-breasted nuthatch - Carolina wren - Red-headed woodpecker - Brown creeper
Meanwhile, a pair of Pileated woodpeckers has been making frequent appearances in nearby trees, and wild turkey numbers are steady at about 19. They come running like a flock of chickens when I go out to fill the feeders. Now, off to see if we can find the snow bunting-longspur-lark flock near the airport!
