Cold weather - hungry birds

As the temperatures hover around 5 degrees our birds are feeding like crazy and trying to stay warm. The cardinals were back again this morning as well as many finches and woodpeckers. We do have a new visitor that Caleb and I have not identified yet.

Can anyone tell what this bird is?

Warm January Weekend

For a brief moment this past weekend I thought spring was on the way. The warm temperatures provided the opportunity for the bluebirds to visit us while searching for a few insects. I finally got a picture of one sitting on the edge of our roof. Caleb and I also went for a hike at Honey Run Waterfall Park. Now the temperature is well below freezing but at least I have the pictures!

Today's winter snow storm


Today we were able to get a lot of great pictures while the birds were feeding during the snow storm. The cardinals are beautiful as they standout against the snow.
