We have had a BROWN CREEPER at the suet feeder almost daily. Often a PINE WARBLER. Yesterday two BROWN CREEPERS were trying for the same feeder. We had a Y.B SAPSUCKER visiting daily but they, as a male and female came, left about 10 days ago. Not to exclude the usuals, we also have RED-BELLIED WOODPECKERS, W.B. NUTHATCHES, DOWNYS(or downies), and TITMICE. Yesterday we had an unusal number of GOLDFINCHES - over 50. Yes, the birds are singing here already.

As a side note, Bill and I have been visiting Tuckahoe St Park, walking along the trails. We made three visits while the snow was on the ground, or snowing, and had 20 HERMIT THRUSHES. Two were feeding along side the road along with Robins.
