I awoke to this sight the other morning.  There were 13 birds in all, some of which didn't show up in the photos.  Flocks this big only go through my yard about one a year.

They're not herps, but I sometimes do a little birding during winter to distract me from the cold, herpless winter.  I can fell WHS (winter herpers syndrome) kicking in.  Anyone else have WHS?
