bluebirds and others

[Birders@aol.com]

Howdy,

I'm happy to see bluebirds everyday lately. I've seen up to eight, but most 
of the time there are four eating suet in the front and backyards. It was a 
colorful sight to see a male cardinal and male bluebird in the birdbath 
together!

On Friday there were four flickers in the backyard!Two  were chasing each 
other around. Beautiful gold on their tail feathers. I think bird colors are 
more brilliant and stand out more in winter! I know I appreciate them even 
more.

The feeders where quieter over the warm(?) weekend, but they are active again 
today with rain in Raleigh. Saw my first White-crowned Sparrow in the yard 
this winter.

I haven't seen either kinglet in the yard lately. How about you?

Hope the weather is warmer for Morehead City, coming up soon!

Joe and I have recently switched to AOL 6.0, so I hope this will go through. 
I think Joe figured out a way to work around it.

Stay warm. Happy birding! Karen Bearden
