Activity 3 I looked at bar charts specifically for February in our area. I found 13 reported birds that I did not know were in our area. Of them, 8 do not have range maps that include this area, so I "assume" they are accidental. The remaining 5 are: Chestnut collared Longspur Gray Catbird Dusky Grouse Canada Jay Lillian/Chihuahuan Meadowlark

Activity 1 I looked at several birds on the wall of birds. The one that caught my attention is the Red-legged Seriema, Cariama cristata. I found it interesting and a little challenging to group. After reading several articles and looking at pictures, I believe it would be in the "chicken like birds" group. I don't have a favorite bird. I find them all interesting.

Activity 1: I watched the Ontario Bird Cams. It was easy to identify the Common Redpolls, Pine Grosbeaks, and the Black-capped and Boreal Chickadee by size, shape, and color even though I have never seen them in real life. I apologize, I should have marked my last post as Activity 3.

In the winter we have a steady supply of birds coming to our feeders and drinkers. Here is a beautiful Northern Flicker female waiting for the suet, and by chance, a Mountain Chickadee at the suet in the same picture. Our White Breasted Nuthatches really like the suet as well. We also have Cassin's Finches, Dark Eyed Juncos, Canyon and Spotted Towhees that like to forage for seeds on the ground and rarely visit the suet. Our Woodhouse's Scrub Jays like the suet and the seed on the ground.
