In honor of the upcoming Olympics... Downhill skiing with a Dark-eyed Junco.
This coming weekend we have the 13
th annual
Great Backyard Bird Count! This is a real easy project for everyone to get involved with...you don't have to leave home or EVEN GO OUTSIDE INTO THE COLD! With the amount of snow that has fallen this week, this will be a good excuse for you to stay home and bird from your windows.
We have feeders set up in the front and the back of our humble little abode, so we have to run back and forth to see who's visiting all the feeders. We get almost as much exercise running inside as we would out in the field! This is going to be a fun and easy day...not to mention hot cocoa and
jammies!
You never know what will pop in for a visit! We had an Albino House Sparrow, at least for a little while.
Bob, the Cooper's Hawk thought it tasted like white chocolate...
The Dark-eyed Junco says "How cold is it?!"
