With the storm in full swing today, our feeders had an abundance of birds. Northern Cardinals stole the show, with at least 44 present at one time this afternoon!!! I'd love to know just how many were around. This beats our previous high of 26 cardinals a couple years ago. Here's a rundown of what's being seen:
