I enjoy the stories people post about the bird behaviour they observe in their backyards. Isn't it nice to have our 'regulars' at our backyard feeders? I worry a bit when the chickadees, bluejays, crows and other 'regulars' are away a day or two. Then when the 'regulars' come back it's as exciting as having a 'guest'. I had 1 male and 1 female Evening Grosbeak yesterday. My first this year and they used to descend in hordes and clean the feeder out. What is going on with Evening Grosbeaks or am I just not this years winter destination hotspot? We name our wildlife from the Thornton W Burgess children's stories. Of course, this mean all skunks are Jimmy and all frogs are Grandfather but its been a great way for the kids to connect to wildlife and give them an equal level of importance as they do to other people. We haven't seen Lightfoot this year but there have been many tracks in the yard. Could be the apples. -- Bertha had a whole armload of opinions. She'd go around and collect them and give them to you all at once. Medicine River Thomas King
