Strangely enough when it started to snow and blow I didn't see any birds at the feeder. I thought they would be hungry. Even after the snow had stopped not many birds came. The first birds back were the house sparrows (photo). They were lazy. They only ate from the side of the feeder that had no snow banked on it. THe other side they just ignored.
Today the snow has melted from the feeder but there is still some in the grass and at the sides of the road. More birds are visiting but it is not busy as it was before the snow and colder weather came. I have seen a few chickadees and the odd red-breasted nuthatch but that is about all so far. Maybe things will look up next week.
