Fellow feeder watchers,

     This morning has been a real bonanza at the feeders.  A pair of RUSTY
BLACKBIRDS have shown up twice so far, but are very skitterish for some
reason.  The two Chipping sparrows that have been here all winter, are
still here.  And, the OREGON RACE of Slate colored Junco came back after
about a two to three week absence, assuming it's the same bird.

     The regular suspects included two Sapsuckers, two Harries, Downies and
Red Bellies, and a Brown Creeper.  Also saw three Bluebirds along the
driveway.  All in all, an exceptional morning in the yard.  Where is Sue
Snyder when you need a snow day contest?
