I'm joining up with Heather at Kingdom Arrows to share our Running List of Backyard Birds with other bloggers each month. Our lists will ONLY be birds that we see in our own yard as we're experimenting with different suets and seeds to see what non-migrating birds we attract this winter.
 |
| Black-capped Chickadee |
Location: western Maine
Altitude: Uncertain
Our Yard: located at the bottom of a 1000 ft mountain with many small brooks, including one that runs our property line, and a pond, MANY evergreens, some broadleafs, and a marsh in our backyard
And here's our list for January:
- Red-breasted Nuthatch
- Black-capped Chickadee
- Blue Jay
- Dark-eyed Junco
- Tufted Titmouse
- Northern Cardinal
- Mourning Dove

We don't have cardinals.....I won't be envious. :)
ReplyDeleteYou have a great list and it should be interesting to see how your list changes as the months go by.
I have been trying to find a red-breasted nuthatch all month, I just found out about them. I only knew about the white-breasted. Thanks for participating! I bet there will be more in February, with early birds starting to migrate.
ReplyDeleteWhat a GREAT idea! Sadly, we don't see much songbird variety here in the Chicago suburbs. LOTS of cardinals though! Beautiful picture of the chickadee! Enjoyed hopping over!! Blessings!

I'm visiting via Kingdom Arrows. I like the idea of experimenting with the types of feed. We have considered doing that for a science fair project.
ReplyDeleteI enjoyed reading your list. Thanks for sharing!
We have a ton of cardinals and other birds...I think the hubby needs to fill up the feeders though...have not seen any in a while...
