The shift away from the road is proving to be somewhat advantageous in finding birds. Some of the species that are routinely associated with hardwoods (TEWA, BTNW, BLBW and others) have shifted to feeding in pines. This phenomenon has been record in the past and it is believed that this is associated with the availability of insects in pines in the late fall and/or cooler temperatures. Tom Egan Marietta, Georgia
