Did you know that you can mail three chickadees with a single stamp? That Black-billed Cuckoos flourish on a diet of army worms? That winter finches are especially attracted to feeders offering grit and eggshells?

Enjoy Laura’s entertaining observations and record your own in For the Birds-an uncommon guide.
