Where is Spring?



The birdfeeder is busy. Birds need a lot of energy to brave the cold weather. It is just a few degrees above freezing and it is to get worse later in the week. At least we did not have freezing rain, although there were brief flurries this morning.

There were the usual red polls and the visiting juncos. They have been active all day. I have seen a few crows but none in the yard. I set out some bacon grease but no one has claimed it yet. I set it on the ground later so a skunk or cat may feast overnight. There were chickadees from time to time at the feeder as well but I did not see a downy or any house sparrows today.
