Birds in New Jersey 2014
1 November 2014 -
The new month began very wet. Birds eat, rain or shine.
Female brown-headed cowbird
Mourning dove, dark-eyed junco
A fluffy-looking house sparrow
Because of the heavy rain, seed was spread under a large bush. Many small birds appeared, mostly house sparrows, to
chow down out of the rain.
The females have yellow bills; the male in the center has its distinctive "angry" dark area going from its beak up over its eye,
and a dark bill.
Squirrels also were able to munch out of the rain
