the chickadees must have all visited my feeders, then, because
i noticed a tremndous increase in their numbers once the snow
fell.
also noted in large numbers; bushtits, pine siskins, house finches,
robins.
lesser numbers but still notable; varied thrush, fox sparrows, i am
sure that i will remember the other sightings as soon as i send this
email...
and, in the "need i even mention it" category; bazillions of
starlings and english sparrows. lots of squirrels, too.
