Title: Tree sparrow and House finch
Post by: Shortsighted on January 24, 2025, 11:18:35 AM
Not many birds around this winter.  I can take a walk around the neighbourhood and not see, or hear a single bird.  In previous years there were cardinals and chickadees everywhere.  When something shows up in the backyard it is most often a single junco.  If anything else visits, like a tree sparrow or finch it hangs around for a few minutes while visiting my feeder and then they disappear and don't return.
