Winter Birds

Hadn’t seen any finches at the feeder for a couple of weeks until this morning when a flock of more than fifty descended. You often see juncos traveling with the finches & feeding on the ground, but I didn’t notice any this morning. They came in right after a brief snow squall when the sun broke through. The sun is long-gone. The school bus just came down the road in late morning, which means an early dismissal for a storm. Swirling, wind-driven flakes beginning & only a few chickadees out & about.
