Absolutely gorgeous bird.   I haven't seen one like that here, in Central Florida,  but my feeders are very busy with bluebirds.  Im also getting small yellow, finch size birds...I think Warblers??   Cardinals doing good here too.  I just LOVE watching all the activity...I usually read my Bible and pray every morning but im getting distracted by these gorgeous 🐦.    Only problem,  the cowbirds have been flocking in devouring everything 😡.  We are constantly chasing them.  I dont have the heart to take down the feeders for a few days,  my bluebirds wait for me.   I thank God for His magnificent creations, so beautiful to see.

I have a feeder on a shepherds hook with a baffle on it.  The squirrels don't bother it.  They tried, but leave it alone now.   I used to have a pair of cardinals come around, but haven't seen them in months.  Really miss them.

@Patriot3 , try putting out some sunflower seeds...I use the ones without shells.  I just add a small handful to the rest of the seeds.  I love cardinals too, and they're always here.  Hope you get them again!

Was just thinking about this bird this morning hoping that he/she had left for warmer parts.  Lots of cold and snow in Maryland. 

 

Haven't heard any more on our local news after the initial sightings.

 

Hoping he is safe!

There is a snowy owl now in Central Park, NYC.

 

Birders are going nuts looking for it or finding it & snapping photos of it. 

The crows in the area aren't happy with it being there.
