Backyard Birds Mid- December

 Bernie and I are very happy to see all of the birds in my backyard coming to the feeders  and the trees that are around.    On a daily basis we see House Finch, American Goldfinch, 4 species of Woodpeckers - Northern Flickers, Red-bellied, Hairy and Downy.  We are hoping to get Red-headed and Pileated woodpeckers here also as they are nearby in our area.  We have Dark-eyed Juncos, Song and White throated Sparrows, Northern Cardinals, Carolina Wrens, Tufted Titmice, Carolina Chickadees, White-breasted Nuthatches, Blue Jays and Mourning Doves.  Today, we had a rare for us group of about 6 Eastern Bluebirds and also a Common Grackle.
