On, under, and around: Northern Cardinals, White-thoated Sparrows, a Fox Sparrow, and a Song Sparrow grab and glean the seeds of Platycladus orientalis.

My backyard, in the southern-tier of N.Y., are 12 beautiful mourning doves, flocking/feeding on seed under the bird feeder. Almost pink in this early light.

They do like to herd. A nearby fire-escape facing the morning sun here often has up to twenty Mourning Ds on it.

Have only seen fox sparrows once up here in Westchester. I was struck by their size and distinctive markings. Handsome birds.
Your posts really make me wish I could get out more.
