    Today was another busy day at the feeder and the ledge. Most of the birds were feeding on the ground, maybe because it was cold & windy. I had 6 blue jays at once. A couple of them came to the ledge, I had to sneak up on them to get a photo.

    Oh! Bless their little birdy hearts... they are all so pretty. It reminds me of class pictures -- as if they are posing for us.

    Love seeing the photos of all the birds visiting your feeders! We really enjoy feeding our feathered friends, especially during the winter. Right now, we have so much snow and very cold temps, so we know they really need the feed. We see the same birds every day! Fun!
