I was pleasantly surprised to see at least 5 fox sparrows (I think there were more) eating cracked corn and millet that I'd broadcast on the ground near my feeding station today. I've had 2-3 for about two months now, but today was a record. We live along a hemlock gorge in fairly mature deciduous forest here at the Highlands Nature Sanctuary, west of Chillicothe.
