Hello,   I have been meaning to post but have not had the time so here is an 
overview of what I have seen in the past two weeks at my feeders. 
The red-winged black biirds started coming back two Saturdays ago and since 
then I have seen grackles, starlings, many robins, common redpolls have been 
in and out in groups of 25 to over 100, blue jays, nuthatches, black-capped 
chickadees, Tufted titmouse, crows, a female cardinal but I heard another 
hiding in a bush, juncos and this morning I heard my first song sparrow. 
I am looking forward to seeing the purple finches and grossbeaks. I have not 
had any goldfinches which is a change from the many I had lst year. I wonder 
if it is because of the redpolls. 
Enjoy the sunshine!!   Anne
