Hi all,
Last May I moved from Bear Mt in Evergreen down to north Golden near a pdog town to get rid of 4-7-ft snowfalls and having to shovel it off two big decks! It has worked so far. Miss my mt birds tho. Like Tammy and Ira, I had my first Broad-tailed HB at the feeder yesterday. Say's Phoebes are on our roofs looking for places to nest, so I am going to put up a nesting ledge under the eaves as an experiment. Had two unusual spp on my feeder down here this winter. A Gray-crowned Rosy-Finch with a fractured left leg was on my sunflower feeder tray during snow-stormy days 27 and 28 February. And a healthy male kestrel sat on the same feeder tray watching the ground underneath for about 5 min on 28 Jan. Looking for mice and voles eating spilled seed? Or just basking in the sun? Gorgeous! Good birding, Kay Kayleen A.
