Very familiar guest to most yards. Even though they may not be seen as frequently in winter, they can still be heard. Charming cheep, series of 10 or so. Supper is fruit or bugs or fruit with bugs. Scamper pause, scamper pause, scamper pause peck. Nest structure rootlet structure: feather paper twiglets with the wrist of one wing. Females are the primary nest builders, bosses.
