I had a hoary redpoll at my feeders this morning around 10:15.  It was
amongst a group of about 100 redpolls.  It may possibly have been the same
bird that was last seen on 12/31.  Looking at my photos I took then, it sure
looked the same.  But as before there was little feeder activity at all
until around 10:00.  Birds started coming in and close to 10:30 a group of
house finches came in followed by the redpolls.  The birds were there about
5 minutes and a sharp-shinned came in scaring everything.  The house finches
returned about 20 minutes later, but the redpolls never returned.  I walked
around looking along the cliff and saw nothing.  I left around 11:45.  When
I giot home this evening the feeders were barely down.  I have a Cooper's
and a sharp-shinned regularly coming to the feeders so when the birds are
here they are jumpy.  I'll advise if it returns.
