The Birds and the First Snow

The first snow of the season and some of the birds who

visited our yard...

Blizzard

So very cold today as the temperatures

hovered in the lower single numbers and

the wind swirled the fine snow.

Much activity at the bird feeders.

Down at the beach was quiet.

Sea smoke rose from the ocean which is

a rare sight.

A group of small gulls had gathered on the

beach and some were asleep. They must

have helped each other conserve energy by 

being close together.

 

Still Snowing

As it snowed again this morning, more birds

flocked to the birdfeeders.

The snow changed to rain after several more inches....

The Birds in the Blizzard

A few of the birds who stopped by 

during the blizzard today were

 the  Carolina wren ...

the starling

the woodpecker

 

the cardinal
 

the chickadee

the sparrow

the bluejay

and some doves!

Visitors on a Snowy Day

A snowy day...
here are some of the
beautiful feathered and furry friends
who stopped by today.

I loved seeing them all!

Choices

Yesterday I noticed this woodpecker
was positioned in a very good spot for
the suet of his choice!

I love watching the birds!

A Reminder of Valentine's Day

Hearts come in all shapes and sizes with
different messengers...wishing you all
days filled with love and kindness!

Another Snowy Day

Ellie May and I spent the day inside working
on art, watching the snow gently fall and keeping
an eye on the birds visiting the yard in search of food...
we have sunflower seeds, suet and apples to offer.

Birds on a Snowy Day

Enjoyed the company of the birds
on this quiet snowy day.
