Hi All,
AFTER THE FLOOD and drastic change of habitat we worried if the birds would come. Well, we've had a White-throated Sparrow (tan type) ground feeding with the juncos for about a week.
Today had what appeared to be a female 1st winter Rose-breasted Grosbeak (pale bill, bright wingbars) looking around the feeding area and hanging peanut feeder. What a surprise!
NOTE: Haven't seen a Song Sparrow since the flood, and regularly used to have them all year.
