Garden Activity Increase's

The number of Goldfinches visiting the garden has increased rapidly over the last few days going from 2 to 10. My father has also reported 2 Bullfinches recently. Going the other way however appear to be Collard doves which peaked at 20 and are now down to 3 regular visitors. Has anyone else noticed any changes recently?

From what I have seen and heard over the past week, Collared Doves have a stable population in Queensbury. In keeping with the environment, we don't have a lot.

Goldfinches have increased here too, along with long tailed tits.
GS woodpecker are far less common on my feeders than last year though. They used to be almost hourly - this year I'm lucky if there's one a week.
