Two More Spring Arrivals
Hurrah for two common birds: The house finch and the brown-headed cowbird. They arrived at the Audubon just a few days ago.
This single finch was easy to spot among the chickadees at the feeders, while the brown-headed cowbird was part of a large flock who alternated between the tall pines and the feeders. The cowbirds seemed perfectly happy to mingle with the red-winged blackbirds and grackles. I love the cowbirds’ songs, which are described as “a variety of whistles, clicking and chattering calls”.
