Here, too.  About a dozen of 'em.  Mostly on the nyjer feeder, but one
of them is taking his time with the sunflower seeds.  Of all the
feeder birds, Goldfinches are the most well behaved.

Also had my first Eastern Towhees of the year.

And large numbers of the usual suspects - Cardinals, White-Throated
Sparrows, Dark-Eyed Juncos, Tufted Titmouse, Black-Capped Chickadees.
Every now and then they skedaddle, and I start looking for a hawk.
Yet they don't seem to mind much when I go out there for a refill.

Amazing how a little snow brings them all out of the woods.  Snow days
are like watching Bird TV.
