Another set of good ones. Thank you, Anneliese

That's the second out of place rufous I've read about this week now. The first was captured by a rehabber and they were looking for a way to ship it.... I don't know if you can save yours or not, it's so early in the season. Here, during freezing weather, there are various things to do like keep back up unfrozen feeders and swap them out when the first freeze. Bring them in at night, set an alarm and get them back out at least a half hour before daylight in the morning (which is what DH chooses to do). Duct tape disposable hand warmer packets to them will help for approx. 6 hours. Christmas lights wrapped around the feeder can be enough heat to keep them thawed. Of course in my climate I'm talking about for a week or so a couple of times a winter where the annas regularly winter over - the syrup in the feeders will begin to freeze after a few hours at about 28F. I wish I knew how you might save yours, I wonder if there is a licensed rehabber available in your area. I think that's the only legal way to attempt to intervene.
