Well as usual it was snowing today! Thankfully my wonderful loving husband went and bought me some long johns so I can stay outside a wee bit longer than before. Alas I wish I had something that protected my face a little more, it sure starts to hurt after awhile. Anyway today my feeders were really really busy, so much so there was no room at times for the new comers. So they had to sit and wait, like the first little one you see here at the top. I feel so sorry for them, I don't know how they do it.....keeping themselves warm enough to survive in these extreme environments. I wish I could put long johns on them I bet they would really love it! Can you image little birds flying around with long johns on??? Hahahahah it would be a sight to see wouldn't it.
This poor soul below actually has an icicle hanging off it's beak!!! click on the picture to see it.
Look at all the snow on top of the bird feeder, and to think that first thing in the morning I had already clean off all the snow and dug out all the seed for them. Now at 1pm I had to tidy up the feeders again so they could find their food.

ReplyDeleteI didn't realize you're from Sask. Boom and I are from N. Ont and we have no snow. Can you believe it. Come and visit.
ReplyDeleteWow you for sure get more snow than we do! It is freezing over here but no trace of snow! Beautiful image and it is nice to help this little fellow for the winter!
ReplyDeleteA tough time for the birds and the humans. Getting colder over here so thermals played their part today.
ReplyDeleteI though our birds were having a tough time with out bit of snow but yours is quite something.
ReplyDeleteI think we could do with a layer of downy feathers to fluff out in this sort of weather.
Not the most elegant of clothing but have you tried a balaclava to keep your face warm or would it just get wet and freeze up?
