I had my first American Goldfinches yesterday at my feeders. I put some thistle out that had been left over from last year and they still came. The goldfinches must not be too picky around here!
Also yesterday, I had a hummingbird show up at my feeder. I keep a feeder out year-round in case I get a winter hummer in my yard. So far I've never seen one. But, yesterday one showed up. I don't know what kind it was. I was looking through a pair of 8x21 binoculars through my windshield. To make matters worse, the binoculars were fogging up. I know it wasn't a Buff-bellied or male Rufous, but other than that, I'm not sure what he/she was. Hopefully it will show up again and I can make a positive identification.
