Our big snowstorm has just begun, tiny flakes drifting from the sky. In preparation, I cleaned the bird bath and replenished the feeders. Soon after, a flock of Bushtits arrived to eat at the peanut feeder, filling my heart with joy. I adore those tiny birds and curse the greedy chickadees that chase them from the food (sometimes while already holding a peanut in their beak). No pics today, but here’s a shot from last fall that I love.
That autumnal dining experience was at a much more comfortable temperature. Currently, it’s just above freezing and the low is forecast at 14 degrees. Stay warm, wee ones.
yes, stay warm indeed – and love the photo from the fall – such a great shot

We’re doing our best to stay warm and all the birds are fluffed up to insulate. Brrr. Thank you for the Bushtit love. 🙂

Glad to hear you’re actually getting some snow on the front range these days! Hope your wrists have recuperated from all that recent shoveling. FWIW I tried to leave a note on your last post (vermiculture et al) but WordPress is being glitchy and cut me off, hmmm

Yes, we are thrilled to be getting snow! Another storm headed our way for Wednesday and my wrists are ready for more shoveling. Sorry about WP not letting you comment.
