Subject:      Indigo Bunting ... and where are the Goldfinches?

Yes, us too.  Our first-of-the-year male  INDIGO BUNTING was just at one of
the feeders.  The odd thing is that the  thistle feeders are normally covered
with American Goldfinches when the Buntings  arrive but our Goldfinches have
scattered for some reason.  There are low  numbers at our feeders even for our
year-round birds much less any arriving  birds.  I haven't noticed others
reporting large numbers of migrant  Goldfinches either??

Our pair of BLACK VULTURES were playing at the edge  of the pond again on
Friday.
