Winter birds are settled in on the Vineyard, and feeders are busier in January as birds look for reliable sources of food in snow and cold temperatures.

Send bird sightings to birds@mvgazette.com and follow the latest avian activity through the Gazette Bird News column.

Today, bright sun on the snow cover: a new visitor at our bird feeder in the woods was a house finch male sporting his red forehead and chest. On Sunday, during the snow storm, a little song sparrow seeking refuge under a holly branch that had blown against the feeder`s pole, occasionally appearing to snow/ground feed with half a dozen mourning doves.
