The sun is just coming out here. Lots of bird speak today! Every one has 
something to add to the chorus. Still here we have the solitary Catbird who 
has made it very plain green grapes are  the fav. on the menu. We get the 
big ones and they get tucked away into knots in the grapevine. The Squirrels 
for the most part leave them alone. They have been spoken to and they appear 
to be listening.
There are a couple American Tree sparrows from time to time, my regular 
White Throats and Song as well. The large numbers of Junocs seems to be 
moving out although we have some. Chickadee numbers seem to be consistent, 
at times upwards of 20 or more. We have 3 or 4 Blue Jays depending on the 
time of the day. The other morning I checked the apple trees and there, a 
solitary Robin.
For many years we had a Robin, it started out from our property and we 
nursed it through a couple winters)  (we think it was the same bird from how 
it reacted to us) we looked for it and it would return about this time and 
stay until spring when we didn't worry about feeding it anymore. One year 
there were two. Then back to one. We always put apples out under the trees 
and it warms our hearts to see them being over.
There are a few starlings about, oh and the Red Winged Blackbird still 
visits several times a day.  We have two Red bellied Nuthatches today.
9 big crows patrol the neighbourhood arriving several times a day to closely 
inspect the feeders.
