We've had great fun watching three of these little fellows who are regular visitors for
the time being. Like the Juncos, these guys tend to stay away from the other birds and
like to go to the feeding station that is the farthest from the house.
I now have another little fellow to watch. He sits on the tip-top of the pine tree outside
my office door and sings his little heart out.
