The snow storms brought visions of all sorts of wayward visitors to our feeders. Filling up the feeders on Friday evening I went to bed. Saturday morning brought a flurry of Cardinals, White-throats, and Juncos, along with all the regulars. 

Around eleven a.m. we were finally rewarded with our first ever Eastern Blue Birds (2 males) in our yard. 
They stayed about 10 minutes at a suet feeder,....until of resident Cooper showed up for an extended stay. Alas, I think, the Blues did not think much of the neighborhood and have thought better to returning.
