At my backyard suet and sunflower seed feeders, I've had the usual residents and winter birds. Of special. note, however, is the 2 pine warblers,2 yellow-rumps, red-breasted nuthatch, and the brown-headed nuthatch. The red-breasted has been here every year with the exception of 1 or 2. The brown-headed has been here the past 2 years---I had a report last year of 1 at another birder's house across town. We both have mature pine woods. I believe if I could get enough birders to observe and report in this area, we would have more br-hd-nuthatches moved across from Chattanooga area. My pine warblers and yellow-rumps all eat at both suet and seed feeders.
