Magpye that second shot of the nuthatch getting a sip is amazing. Going have to set up a piece of wood next to bird bath for them. Pretty cold here still, should get up to seventy on Friday. Has been pretty busy in are yard. There has been a Coopers hawk stalking around are feeders. First batch of baby sparrows in are bird house. Mom and Papa are busy feeding the babies. Will try to get close picture. I think there is three. Saw a big group of Blue Jays in neighbors yard the other day. Hopefully they will stay away from baby sparrows. Have had as many as twenty gold finches on the feeders, fighting for position. And first every sighting of an Eastern Phoebe, which I believe is a juvenile. Was sweeping out driveway and notice little bird sleeping in Lilac bushes. Was able to get camera and snap a few shots. Have never seen a Phoebe before, but pretty sure for books and internet that is a Phoebe. George
