Plenty of cardinals (cool and very stunning birds!)...in fact I've been hearing more cardinals sing lately. Haven't seen many blue jays at all, but used to see a lot of them in northeast Ohio when I lived there. Expand I may have seen an oriole or two in my time, but it's exceedingly rare. Cardinals, for sure. Robins everywhere. Blue jays occasionally, but definitely not more than maybe a nesting pair at the same time. We've had all kinds of birds at our feeders this winter - probably moreso than any other year. The kids really like watching the birds (and giving them names) in the morning as they descend upon the feeders.

Expand We've seen some flocks of robins already, though we see plenty of randoms all year long. Most interesting is when they pick clean the 35' holly tree in my front yard every fall. It's a flock that goes nuts for about a week in November until nearly every berry is gone. They left enough for two or three cedar waxwings who were passing through this year. Pretty soon they'll be queueing up for worms and other critters... 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
