Hi all. The Redpolls that have attended my nyjer feeders at Bathurst and Eglinton every day since 8 December dwindled down to just two individuals yesterday. To brighten things, however, beside the plentiful Goldfinches, there was a Brown Creeper in the yard yesterday morning, and this morning produced the first Eastern Towhee seen at this very urban mid-Toronto property in more than 25 years--a very flashy male picking around under the feeders.
