At noontime, I checked for birds at Hopkinton State Park, Sudbury Reservoir and Chestnut Hill Farm in Southboro but saw nothing but a couple of fluffy mourning doves, It was 12 degrees. Not much open water either.....most had iced over in the last 24 hours.
On a day like today, which started out at 3 degrees and warmed up to a high of 15, I wonder if my Carolina wren is wishing it had wintered farther south.
Also seen at my feeders today:
American Goldfinch
Black-Capped Chickadee
Dark-Eyed Junco
Mourning Dove
Northern Cardinal
Tufted Titmouse
White-Breasted Nuthatch
White-Throated Sparrow
We have those all over our yard. They sure sing loud and proud. We've dubbed them chipmunks with wings, since there are some similarities in coloring and size!
