We have multiple feeders outside our kitchen windows, including a 1' x 2' windowsill extension platform. In the past hour, chickadees, junco, cardinals, song and fox sparrows, blue jay, mourning doves, white-breasted nuthatch, and a male red-winged blackbird have all sat just outside my window

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

Continuing at our feeders are a small flock of Purple Finches, both sexes, consuming black oil sunflower seeds, and a half dozen Pine Siskins on the niger socks. This in addition to the goldfinches and juncos and doves in profusion along with a few chickadees, nuthatches, and titmice.

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
