Sightings around Liberty and Appleton

[Susan Davies]

I’m having a very colorful show at my tube and platform feeders In Liberty now that I’ve discouraged the hoardes of blackbirds by only putting out food they don’t like on the platform. Now getting pairs of Northern Orioles, Cardinals, and RB Grosbeaks, occasionally a Purple Finch and lots of Chipping Sparrows and Song Sparrows. And one sighting of a Scarlet Tanager on suet...And Goldfinches too numerous to count. Yesterday late afternoon I had THREE male Indigo Buntings happily coexisting on my tube feeder. 

And a trip across Appleton Ridge yielded a Killdeer and a bunch of Savannah Sparrows.
