OK, OK. I know, it's a pest. But it's a hungry pest and it's so cold outside. The finches throw down the feeder seeds they deem unworthy and usually it's the juncos that benefit.

Later, I saw a fox sparrow helping itself to a few of the seeds as well. This is the first one we've had at the feeder all winter. Normally, they don't come at all. Does this mean spring is a long way off or that it's just around the corner?

Now that is wishful thinking.
