Birdfeeding

[ysabetwordsmith]

It snowed yesterday, probably about 4 inches.  The ground is covered.  The trees still have a little sticking to them, but this is light fluffy snow so most has already fallen off.  The temperature is frigid.

I haven't been out to feed the birds yet, but they're active.  I've seen a flock of sparrows, a flock of mourning doves, two starlings, and a downy woodpecker.

EDIT 1/25/26 -- I fed the birds.  I've seen a male and a female cardinal.

I put out water for the birds.

It's snowing slightly again.

EDIT 1/25/26 -- I did a bit of work around the patio.

Snow is sifting down off and on, but the wind has picked up so it's drifting more in places.  Surprisingly the snowplow has already passed by at least once.  That usually doesn't happen until the day after the snow stops, because we're out in the country.

EDIT 1/25/26 -- I did more work around the patio.

I am done for the night.
