DOZENS of birds in the front yard yesterday, tons of robins, varied thrushes, junkos, finches and of course the chickadees. ? Maybe looking for any sunflower seeds left behind. Apparently the chickadees hide seeds in “thousands of hiding spots”, which explains the many, many little sites in the ground that looked like birds poking around. There were 3-4 birds in the pond at a time. Watched the varied thrushes do their winter thing and eat the berries from the American Cranberry trees and huckleberries.
We got our first snow today, of course it is a work day and I am on call. Can’t wait till I’m part-timer and don’t have to drive through the mess as much.
