This morning, on the first day of 2015, many birds came to our back yard, apparently quite hungry as they emptied more than half of our large feeder in just a few hours. There were chicadees, titmice, blue jays, cardinals, juncos, and maybe others as well.
A pretty female cardinal perched on the yellow magnolia tree and looked at me curiously as I took the following shot.

Later on, a blue jay landed then took off almost immediately. I barely had time to take this shot.

Thanks, Doda. Birds definitely know when seasons change, and migrate accordingly. They use the sun and maybe the moon and stars in their migration. They probably know better than us when things change. 🙂
