When everything is frozen, a heated bird bath becomes a vital and a meeting spot. I like to keep one on the ground where I have the pond in the summer, and critters and birds will both use it (some even if they never visit a feeder). Yesterday, a female Redwinged Blackbird came, and today, there were two American Tree Sparrows. In between the Starlings keep me busy.
