Freezing rain kept sightings of birds in Sax-Zim Bog to a minimum yesterday. Despite the weather, along the boardwalk at Winterberry Bog we watched Black-capped Chickadees and Pine Grosbeaks visiting the feeders and occasionally perching in the surrounding bushes or trees. I walked a little further down the boardwalk and found a suet feeder nailed to a pine tree. This White-breasted Nuthatch took a few bites of suet then wandered down the trunk in search of something else.
