A few magpies about!



Magpies like crows are not too popular around here. I like both. I even feed crows leftovers at times. Magpies are not plentiful this year but I saw a couple on our way shopping at the next town. There are many more red-winged blackbirds.

The feeder is mostly frequented by chipping sparrows and goldfinches with a few house sparrows every few days and chickadees more frequently. Yesterday I saw a pine grosbeak. They are not very common this time of year. I see them more often in the winter.
