We have at least one Anna's visiting our feeder despite the recent (and current) rough weather. We think it may the same one that stayed with us all last winter. As to feeding, does anyone know whether or not it's adviseable to bump up the sugar content a bit for an enegy boost?
Also we have a Sharp-shinned hawk who has become a regular over the past week. It appears to be a mature bird who has survived despite a pretty unstealthy hunting technique - we usually see it perched atop a seed feeder in plain sight, apparently waiting for dinner to be served.
