Birds and Blizzards


The birds have been busy at the bird feeder. I have seen as many as four female cardinals at one time on the feeders. I've also noticed that the juncos are perching on the feeders now to eat and not just eating off the ground. There is room for 10 or maybe 12 birds at one time at our feeder, so often the birds have to wait in the tree for their chance to get a good spot.

We are winding down from our first significant snow of the season and it has been a blizzard. So far we have about 10 inches. Schools, churches, and many businesses are closed. Meetings have been postponed and smart people are staying off the roads if they have the option of staying at home.
