[Birdtalk] Backyard birds Steller's Jays again

[Brenda Kidman]

Hi Guys,

Gosh, with this weather being so fierce I hope that those of you that can
are keeping your backyard feeders filled.  It is so cold and so snowy.  Here
in South Weber we got over 19 inches last week and there is no way the birds
can find their way to seeds naturally through that kind of covering with the
snow being sustained through these super freezing temperatures.

If you get some feeders out, or keep your existing feeders filled you will
have a better variety to report during the GBBC which is coming up in a
month!

Today the Steller's Jay was back, we have had six Eurasians that hang around
all the time, five or so Flickers, Mountain Chickadees, Black Capped
Chickadees, bajillions of Juncos and Sparrows, House Finches, American
Goldfinches, and a Sharpie that feeds daily.  We actually had a Kestrel that
was hanging out.

Be safe and good birding!

Brenda
