We have been feeding the young fox for the past 2 weeks to get it through a challenging period.  We believe it was pre-maturely separated from the adults and is struggling a bit to find its own food.  It had been out during the day looking for food until we started feeding it.  Now the dog food is disappearing, but we have not seen it during the day.  We hope it is OK.

The male indigo bunting is now a regular visitor getting thistle seed.  Three male rose-breasted grosbeaks were at the feeder together yesterday.  We have babies galore: chipping sparrows, bluebirds, house finches, song sparrows, cowbirds, grackles, bluejays, hairy woodpeckers, downy woodpeckers, crows, catbirds, and house sparrows.  Lots of begging to be fed going on.
