Greetings. Of course it would coincide with my trying to move plants
indoors for the cold weather. The neighbors back lilac hedge is busy
with white throat sparrows and chickadees. I filled the ground feeder
with cracked corn and millet blend (cheep seed) to the delight of them,
a cardinal and 2 squirrels. I topped off the other feeders and put out
a suet block. My seed bin in the garage needs replenishing.
Aside from the above mentioned birds, a little wren nearly landed on my
foot while I was hauling a large plant towards shelter (I perhaps was
somewhat camouflaged at the time). A Nashville Warbler made a startled
stop on the gazebo roof; and the back yard feeder has multiple house
finches that appear to still be barely out of the nest, still sporting
little feather tufts above the eyes. I may have seen a Harris sparrow
in the lilac as well, but it hasn't come to ground for a positive ID.
I'll keep watching--Cindy in North Mankato
