Snow Day!!!
The bird cam should get wild and crazy... it's the only place without snow.

Taking pictures of birds in the snow is like shooting ducks in a barrel. Simple and fun!
Like this lady here -

And the birds act so differently when it snows. I snapped this shot of the goldfinch feeder - I had no idea the little guy on the bottom right was there!
Only in the snow would a junco try that!

Gotta go.. got bird to watch!

Great pictures, Jane!

It's so nice to see all the flutter in the snow, isn't it?

I LOVE those 2 pictures Jane!!!!!!!!!!

I am besides myself. There are more birds out there than I can count. It is remarkable! I'm memorized. I am also new too this though. Birds have a really tough time in even an inch of snow finding food - I didn't really know that. I don't have covered feeders!!! I got tto find places for food.

Ouch!! I threw a bunch of seed under the trampoline - no good for photos but they have to find food!

Oh crap a murder of crows just found the yard!!!
Gotta go again!

That picture of the Goldfinches is INCREDIBLE! I REALLY like the multi-colored perches.

Brrrrrr!!! I watch the birds and take pictures from my bathroom window. Brrr!! It gets cold standing there.

It was not a murder of crows (I love saying that) it was a buncha red-windged blackbirds. As identified by their visible yellow stripe - go figure! The red is far smaller than the yellow.

Penny thanks so much. I have tons of pictures. It really is like shooting ducks in a barrell. The tree limbs outside the window are above the main table feeder. They all wait their turn there. Also, I bought the Sony cybershot and lens - they change everything.

Thorny - I love that feeder. I can take it apart and clean it easily and well, too. It's just what it looks like three plastic tubes and colorful dowels. It's was $18 at Bass Pro Shops. I am sure get another. It usually does not, however, photograph well.

I think I hit the 300 birds at once mark today!
Backyard lifelist - without a spring season counted yet I think we are at 33-34 kinds of birds

I am at about 40 Yardbirds at THIS house. Some of my more unusual ones are Great-Blue Heron, Canada Goose, and Ring-Billed Gulls. I count ANY bird that can be seen OR heard, while standing in my yard, as a yardbird.
