Brrrrr - It's A Cold One Today

I'm not quite sure what's going on with Winter this year but it feels really strange.  It's 28F right now and is supposed to get down to 18F tonight but come Saturday we're supposed to see temps closer to 60F.


Still the birds don't seem to mind  too much.  They've been enjoying the suet we recently put out for them . . . . .


. . . . . while the finches love their thistle.


The new squirrel proof bird feeders we bought seem to be working . . . . .


. . . . . although the birds are such messy eaters and throw so much seed on the ground that the squirrels don't get left out.


It makes for happy happy critters all round.


What's the weather doing in your neck of the woods?

  10. I really like these images Kathryn. Our bird feeders were without seed for a few months and now that we've stocked back up, the birds are slow in returning. I suppose it doesn't help that we have very little snow so they can find food in other places. The weather is upside down here in Minnesota too. They are talking about record high temps this week. Kind of crazy.
