Snowy Day!
We're expecting 8-10 inches of snow today here in northern Massachusetts. Our backyard is busy with all varieties of birds and wildlife. Juncos, finches; house finches and gold finches, tufted titmice, chicadees and cardinals visit the feeder frequently during the day to feed on blackoil sunflower seeds. They also enjoy a variety of suets with nuts and fruits.
Hairy and Downy wood peckers come daily and love the suet. Red and gray squirrels and chipmunks will eat any leftovers under the feeders.
We've had success this year with new feeders that keep the squirrels from feeding. I don't think they're starving though. They are all looking well fed.

Birds at the feeder
It is 6 degrees above 0 today. Spring is not as evident as it was just a week ago when the January temperature reached 63. There are several varieties of birds at my feeder everyday. Woodpeckers, cardinals, tufted titmouse, finches, junkos, chickadees and more. They particularly like the suet blocks in the cold weather.
