Hi Peter,I’m a first time writer and would like to know where are all the Golden Finches, chickadees, etc. gone? This is the first year since I’ve been feeding birds they are not around. I heard they were gone because of the hurricanes in August, but this is November 5th and still no birds. Can you please tell me where they are and if they will be back for the winter? I miss them feeding on Niger seeds as well as all the song birds flying around my back yard.Thank you,Ildze Ekmanis ()

Goldfinches have lost their bright spring plumage so they are less obvious now.  They also DO migrate a bit south for the winter from here in upstate NY.  I haven’t noticed less bird at my location but the weather has bee warmer than normal and there is no snow cover so there is lots of natural forage for them this fall.  Keep the feeders clean and filled and I’m sure there will be plenty of birds when the temperatures and snow come down.
