I did not even go through 25 lbs black oil sunflower seeds. Thistle never touched, suet ignored.

Last year I was filling feeders every other day...

Sitting tonight in the kitchen filling out the on-line form for my 20th week of the 2016-2017 Project FeederWatch season, I was struck by how light feeder activity has been this year. Through the vernal equinox, I tallied only 15 species. Seed consumption was much lower too.



Anecdotally, I have heard from birding colleagues and my purveyors that it has been a light feeding season.



What feeder experiences have other observers had?
