[Douglbirds] Pygmy Nuthatches

[KarenSMetz at cs.com]

Like at Buzz and Shirley's, Pygmy Nuthatches are back at our feeders.  The 
closer we get to the Winter Solstice, the more I see them each fall.  

For finches, occasional Pine Siskins join the few American Goldfinches, and 
an unusually large flock of House Finches.  
One House Finch is a leucistic.

Lots of juncos, especially Slate-colored;  only one or two Spotted Towhees.

And a little burst of Golden-crowned Kinglets has come in!  They're the 
tiniest birds here now; that baker's dozen of Wild Turkeys still being the largest.
