I've had Redpolls visiting my yard most if not all days this Winter ( 6 to 60) but today got pretty serious with approximately 100 birds invading every corner of my yard ( the yard is about a 1/4 acre) A very vocal /noisy scene and many birds were digging in the snow looking for spilled seed that had been covered by overnight and morning snowfall. If this continues then the Merlins will be stopping by .....
