    The poor little Junco's, they arrived here just a little early. In the middle of a blizzard. Surprise, Surprise, but they suffered through it, and are happy now. The Chickadee's and Sparrows are showing up too.

    They look adorable when they're fluffed up against the cold like that. I'm glad they found your feeder, Tom.

    Awww poor wee things all puffed up to try and keep warm. It looks as though they found somewhere good to shelter though. Let's hope the snow melts soon.

    They are so cute and 'fluffy'. I am amazed when little creatures know how to protect themselves. ;)

    I feel bad now. I have been complaining because it was 57 degrees here last weekend. I was fluffed up like these birds. I will have to adjust my attitude. Thanks for sharing the birds. Until next time. Lavender Up!

    They are so much fun to watch. I've only seen a few chickadees so far, no juncos yet.
