Winter Playground

After shoveling, yet again, I shoveled a path to the bird feeder (still in the garage due to high winds), then spread seed all over. Some of the regulars braved the frigid temperatures and actually played in the snow. The Dark-eyed Juncos were chasing each other and sliding down the sides of the path -- the path which is at least a foot and a half deep. It started snowing again and the seed was covered in places so the birds had to dig for their food. They looked so funny with snow around their beaks and then them shaking the snow off. Do not get me started on the perching birds in the trees or where ever they could find room, as they were so poofy, trying to stay warm.
