Project FeederWatch Week 5

This was a busy weekend and so I only got to watch the feeders for a few minutes at a stretch, mostly as I was passing by the windows.

If squirrels were birds, I’d have a pretty high count this time, but since they’re not, I didn’t see very many and nothing unusual.

The count for Week 5:

  • Carolina Wren (1)
  • Carolina Chickadee (1)
  • Black-crested Titmouse (1)
  • Bewick’s Wren (1)
  • White-winged Dove (1)
  • Northern Cardinal (1)
  • House Finch (2)
  • House Sparrow (3)
  • Chipping Sparrow (4)

The only noteworthy thing is that I finally saw the female cardinal again for the first time in months. She and the crippled Mr. Cardinal were foraging below the platform feeder earlier in the week, but, alas, I did not see her on my count days, the only cardinal then being Mr. Cardinal.

The weather was mostly overcast, warm and humid. A front came through last night so now it’s in the thirties.

I do love Texas weather.
