After receiving 7" of snow, we had some blackbirds at our feeder that didn't look quite like starlings. Eventually, as one was sitting on a branch waiting for his turn at the feeder, I saw the tell-tale red crescent on the shoulder!! I suspect (if all of them were red-winged blackbirds) that we had at least 4. Are there any other folks seeing them this far north? Another special treat today was our red-breasted nuthatch who shows up every 4-5 days. B.
