With snow traffic returns..



We had some snow the other night and morning. As a result birds are finally returning to the feeder. Before the snow there was almost no traffic. I am not sure why the snow caused the sudden hunger! Maybe the birds have decided they should fill up in case there is more winter coming!
I thought the juncos had all gone north but there are quite a few visiting the last couple of days, along with house sparrows and a pine siskin. I also saw a chipping sparrow (photo).
The old faithful black-capped chickadees are visiting as well and I also saw a couple of red-breasted nuthatches.
