I wasn't looking very hard... but this is the only bee that I noticed in the gardens today. It was a chilly day.

The White-throated Sparrows were around all day but they were tucked pretty deep in the foliage. I think it was because of the Hawk activity for most of the day.

Things are slowing down with the pollinators... but they're still out and about.
The Hyssops, Beggarticks and New England Asters are providing.

Blue Jays
If they're not in the wildlife gardens I can usually hear them not far away.

Some of the Ruby-crowned Kinglet activity in the front gardens today.
I kind of got a sense that they were a little overwhelmed by all of the options of the insect buffet. They seemed to not know which way to go at times...

There were several Yellow-rumped Warblers in the wildlife gardens today. But each time I stepped outside they flew into the trees across the street.

I had a brief visit from a Brown Creeper in the back yard Birch trees today...

White-throated Sparrows in the wildlife gardens. I can't say for certain how many there are... maybe a dozen.
