I haven’t even filled the feeder in the yard. It’s too cold for me. I do throw out a big helping of birdseed into the yard from the front door, though.
They usually clean up the birdseed by the end of the day, and I throw out more before noon every day. Once I have a path clear for me to get to the feeders (or more realisticly when everything thaws), I’ll fill them again and hang some suet, too.
I added a couple videos to the post, I left off the dark eyed Junco and female Cardinal accidentally the first time.
My folks are in Florida on vacation for the next 3 weeks and they just sent me a photo of them enjoying a sunny day at the beach. While I’m here where the air hurts my face.
I bailed on Wisconsin the day after Christmas for Tucson, AZ. The temps have been dropping below freezing at night for the past week. And only up to the mid-50s during the day.
What have the temps been during the day? I know when we traveled to Arizona a couple times during September 2021 and 2022 it was a lot cooler at night, even more so when we were near/in the desert.
Ha, ha, ha, when I immigrated to Canada people warned me that it is cold in winter. My response was, we have winters here, how cold can it be. Boy, was I wrong
I used to be ok with dry heat but after my surgery last year I just cannot take any heat. Humidity is far worse though. Found that out the hard way when we visited New Orleans last September.
Same here. They are calling for -20ºC with windchill tomorrow. I don’t plan going outside unless forced
No matter how light a physical work is, I sweat quite a bit. I also hate sweaty clothing on me, so whenever I work, especially outside I go shirtless and wear a baseball hat to soak the sweat of my head.
