Deck birds, the season begins

I've been watching the deck for the last couple of days after putting the first food of the autumn out.

Nothing too unusual but good number of House Finch (6-8 at a time). I am trying to study Carolina Chicadee but even in this relatively captured environment they are darn fast! A White-breasted Nuthatch and Carolina Wren ass some variety, and the marauding horde of House Sparrows include a female with a white middle tertial on her left wing.
