I've had just my regular (oft times numerous) Chipping Sparrows, and the
House Finches and that's it, all except for one odd bird ...

A Red-Winged Black Bird was in the feeder two days ago, all by himself for
several minutes. I've only seen one other here, and that was sometime last
year, just lighting here and there mostly. So it was nice to actually host
him for a meal.

We definitley had Purple Finches here last year, but haven't seen even one
since they left last year. :(
