We had four Pine Grosbeaks at our feeders in Jefferson on Friday, and this was the first of the winter for us. Friends in the area also report small numbers of pine grosbeaks at their feeders. The pine grosbeaks add some nice color alongside the evening grosbeaks and blue jays. Evening Grosbeak numbers were an estimated 75, including the star of the show, a leucistic individual. Pine siskins numbers increased to 13 and purple finches were 15. We also have a mink showing up daily and picking up tiny pieces of suet below the suet feeders. We had 15 total species yesterday and that is a high count for this winter. I measured an average of 19 inches of snow in our yard on Friday.
