Incoming!
Found it.
It has been a cold and very dry January. Open water has been a scarce resource for the songbirds that we feed. The heated bird bath failed. I bought and put out a new one, and the American Goldfinches found it within fifteen minutes.
Handsome.
I feed songbirds year round, though less diligently from late spring through autumn.
This handsome House Sparrow visited yesterday for some sunflower seed.
Peaceably
