It looks like the change in temperature is official. We will be going from something like this picture....
                                                                   

            Prairie Warbler (Non breeding plumage)

To something more like this one below...

Eastern Towhee (Female)

 

The change in temperature brings about a wide variety of birds. Waterfowl come to find the cold water, and sparrows seek out the cool fields. Many different species can be seen during Winter. Some non birding people believe that Winter is the time for birds to go away and leave. Which is true in some cases such as the majority of the warblers. But many types of birds come in to substitute. I think the alternation of species is a great system to keep us from getting to bored with the same birds in our yards every day. My favorite part about Winter is the sparrows. I love all the different varieties that are to be found at this time of the year.
