I've also noticed greatly increased numbers of Towhees and White-throated Sparrows on the ground under our feeders. By contrast, our Juncos have all but disappeared! I think it's fascinating the way the flock sizes fluctuate.Heatherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15791185232391134319noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7981450248684029870.post-47208226989170300582009-02-04T16:53:00.000-05:002009-02-04T16:53:00.000-05:00Hi Stacy, I know what you mean!

Yeah, I can imagine the wet/white weather over most of the country right now is keeping all the birds close to regular food sources.Royhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01648670975466222140noreply@blogger.com
