FWIW, I had 2 Purple Finches at our feeder in Knoxville on 27 Nov (as 
reported to TN-Bird), but none since.  1 reported so far along with 1 
Red-breasted Nuthatch (also scarce this year) for the Knoxville CBC on 4 
Jan (the tally for which, BTW, is now at 104 species with the newly 
received report of a Common Loon by Patty Ford and Eddy Whitson).
