bigl. I will look up the subspecie later. I set up mainly as four watching the Senecos. The walk on the snow like blackbirds - not hopping. There were young full grown and brightly well plumaged adults. Some of the gang were begging for food. The young had the bright brown feathers with a white around the base of the bill. While watching one young bird at 15 ft with the class 9 shot it pick up some -- thing eventually the common food, then saw it drop it. At first I could see the object on the snow and so scared the bird away and found the object to be a seed from the hemlock. The snow lay was upward of some trees and the banks were covered with seed. I could see no insect on the snow and I believe they were feeding on seeds entirely.
