There has been a feeding frenzy at my feeders both today and yesterday. This snowstorm was keeping my feeders busy. Nothing new or exciting but it has been like that the last couple of months. I did hear a WHO_WHO early this morning.

I am seeing a Red Shoulder Hawk hanging around today I sighting him/her near the top of one of my pine trees in the back yard.

I also saw a group of 25-30 Common Grackles hanging around my yard with the usual group of Starlings and a couple of huge American Crows. 

My usual feeders birds were the Mourning Doves, Red Bellied Woodpeckers, Downy Woodpeckers, Bluejays, Cardinals, Titmouse, larger groups of White Throat Sparrows and Juncos, American Goldfinches, Carolina Wren and Chickadees.

I can not wait until spring, I am tired of snow and cold weather.  The snow is too deep on the fireroads  to try walking on just yet. 

BTW, would anyone know a place close to Baltimore to see Snow Buntings. I tried Cape Henlopen about a month ago but missed them and Bombay Hook is kind of far too. I would love to add the Snow Buntings to my life list.
