Fox sparrow

<> We’ve had a lot of birds at the feeder since the storm, more I think than  all winter! This fox sparrow arrived this morning, along with a robin , many goldfinches ( the males are quite yellow now), juncos and a crow.

Mourning Dove’s Range Moving North

Throughout the winter a mourning dove has occasionally been at the feeder. Suddenly last week there were three, and they are there every day.

Three Skunks

Friday we had a nasty snow storm. Each evening after dark I look out to see if any animals are under the bird feeder cleaning up the fallout. Friday there were three little skunks. I believe they were last years kits, possibly born under our garden shed. They’ve been back each night since.
