Two Fridays ago Matt Young stoped by for a visit. In the course of our chatting he mentioned that unlike last year this’ll be a good year for feeder birds since there isn’t much wild food. WOW was he right. In the last few days my feeders in Dryden village have been visited by countless Chick

I, too, did some feeder-watching this afternoon. I was hoping for a Fox Sparrow, a species which I saw in my yard a few years back during a late heavy snowstorm. My hopes were raised briefly by what turned out to be a Song Sparrow, which eventually fed on a suet/seed block, a behavior I hadn't s
