Yesterday, she didn't show up until almost 9 a.m., giving the little guys a good chance at breakfast. And she didn't stay long, as I had to go out to feed the chickens and that spooked her. She took off, and the air was all a-twitter again!
We had a half-dozen lesser goldfinches, the usual complement of mixed juncos, several house finches, two chickadees, a towhee, and I did see a male starling at one point. The odd thing was that the scrub jays, usually daily visitors, had been scarce while Artemis stayed around, and were back in force yesterday. Several magpies also came by to see if I'd refilled the suet feeder (I hadn't!)...
