We've had the pleasure of a red-breasted nuthatch daily for about the last
month.  The pine siskins showed up again today.  Bad weather brings good
birds again!
Unfortunately, our white-breasted nuthatches haven't been seen lately.

The neighborhood has been looking like a Hitchcock movie with the influx of
grackles, red-winged blackbirds and starlings.  Emily has been chasing them
off the feeders all day.  What a waste of energy (grin).  
I also have a bumper crop of house sparrows. (bummer)
