I have Black-Capped Chickadees already, Tufted Titmice, Downy Woodpeckers,
and the other day I had a Yellow-Shafted Flicker on my suet.  ( Oh, and the
Nuthatches have been around too.)  No Juncos yet althought, it's been
getting relatively cool here in N. Indiana so I decided to start putting out
the suet to see if I'd get any takers.  I usually don't see the above
mentioned birds until late October early November.

 My hummers left early also.  Last year I had one until November!  I think
we're in for a cold winter up here.
