My hoard of 80+ BH Cowbirds have left and no longer overwhelm my feeding 
station in Fremont, Ohio. Now, beautiful Common Grackles (Counted 40+ 
today) appeared suddenly. My resident Cardinals, pair of Carolina Wrens, 
Blue Jays, WB Nuthatches, Red-bellied woodpecker, Hairy and Downy 
woodpeckers, House finches, Mourning doves, Sharp-shinned hawk, Black-
capped chicadees, Goldfinches, Starlings and House sparrows(yuch) are back 
to their normal feeding. Robert   


I once had a sparrow alight upon my shoulder for a moment, while I was 
hoeing in a village garden, and I felt that I was more distinguished by 
that circumstance that I should have been by any epaulet I could have 
worn. Henry David Thoreau (1817 - 1862)
