Natural food supplies become more abundant in late summer/early fall as
plants go to seed?

[cayugabirds-l] What Happened to Cayuga Heights Birds?

2023-10-29 Thread GW
I am new to this list.  Not sure if this question has been asked but the
birds in our Cayuga Heights backyard feeder and those of our surrounding
neighbors have virtually disappeared since late summer. A very, very few
have started to come around: one chickadee, one blue jay and one hairy
woodpecker on separate days but that's about it.  Haven't seen too many
squirrels either.  Predator? Salmonella? Season? 

We miss our birds!
