All my PMs have left but one. Every day a flock of visitors comes by and seem to try to get him to leave with them. He just sits there on the windvane and looks at them until the leave. Maybe he was born without the instinct to migrate and I will have him here all year?

I am in Galveston County, Texas.

Even the winters in Galveston are too cold with lack of flying insects for it to survive. Hopefully it will fly away any day!
