First Birds on the Feeder, Stratford, CT

So, I filled up the bird feeders for the first time at the new house a couple of days ago. Up until yesterday evening, the only bird to visit them had then been a single female house sparrow (BOOOORRRING!) Since then the action has picked up. Here is the first few species to visit.

Bluejay
House Sparrow
Field Sparrow
White-throated Sparrow
White-breasted Nuthatch
Song Sparrow

Flyovers-
American Crow
Rock Pigeon
Downy Woodpecker
Turkey Vulture
Red-tailed Hawk
Kinglet sp.
Gimpy (Field Sparrow) at the feeder

I just put some suet out this morning so I guess we will see if that encourages any more new visitors.
