We too have been visited by a Red-shoulder some of these past days. But I=
 wonder
about their agenda. During a winter 2 years ago, a Red-shoulder would per=
ch on a
branch near the feeder. He seemed to be staring intently, tho', at the co=
mpost
bin. After a long time the other birds took him for granted and in their
impatience to line up at the feeder, some Cardinals would actually elbow =
him
aside.
