Re: Birds? What birds?



We have also noticed a lack of birds at the feeders, but have noticed an
increase at the birdbath.  We have a ground level "puddle" for the birds to
drink from and splash around in.  We've seen Hermit Thrush, Eastern Phoebe,
White-throated Sparrows, American Robins, American Goldfinches, Eastern
Bluebirds, Yellow-rumped Warblers, Mourning Doves, and Song Sparrows just in
the last few days!
