One More Winter Resident

Yesterday I looked out our kitchen window and saw the first Eastern Phoebe of the year sitting on the fence. They love our fences out here to watch for food in the winter.

Brown Thrashers are everywhere! I hear them calling all over. The abundance of tallow tree berries is attracting them. Sigh. That just means there will be more tallow trees next spring . . .

The hummingbirds have made a bit of a resurgence at my feeders. Yesterday there were 20 - 30 around my feeders. I was ready to take down several feeders until yesterday. Maybe their migration isn't as close to being done as I thought.
