Greetings Everyone, Some good birds are still showing up at our place. We still have a few Pine Siskins hanging around, though the numbers are down compared to a week ago. The number of hummers has dropped dramatically. I suppose some of those were just passing through. A Great Crested Flycatcher (photo) came into a tree just outside the window and fought with a Brown Thrasher that was trying to come to the suet cage. Usually I see these flycatchers high in the treetops. One of the three foxes that are still coming to the yard each night looks as if it has been shot through the back (photo) or has been attacked by another animal. It has a large patch of hair gone with a black spot on each side. A few days ago it started coming out in daylight to get food. We usually see them only at night. Roger Mayhorn Compton Mt
