[Maine-birds] Hoary redpoll, clay-colored sparrow, finch frenzy, etc, Eastport

It's been a fun morning watching our home feeders in Eastport.  We have 100+ birds, mostly winter finches, buzzing around while a young Cooper's hawk makes strafing passes from time to time.  I spotted my first hoary redpoll of the year; a very frosty male that stood out from the crowd.  The clay-colored sparrow that arrived in early December has stuck around.  It's interesting to see it feeding alongside redpolls.  

Photos of the hoary redpoll and clay-colored sparrow can be seen here:  https://www.flickr.com/photos/101615744@N02/

Cheers,

Chris Bartlett
