Valentine's Day Snow

We woke up to around 4 inches of snow today. We already had a dusting from yesterday. If I am not mistaken, we've had at least one big snowfall every winter since we've lived here. They usually occur in January or February but sometimes as late as April. Here are the obligatory photos. Text and photos by Phillip Oliver, Dirt Therapy

Red Wing Blackbirds

First of all, thanks to everyone who left a comment on my previous post. I enjoyed reading each and every one of them.

The Redwing Blackbirds are back at the feeders. I only see them at the feeders at certain times of the year. The beginning of Fall seems to be one of those times. This is probably a migration time for them and they are passing through.

    It is that time of year. Redwings are such beautiful blackbirds. I bet you are baking up a storm since it has cooled off. Excuse me while I go bake some muffins. :)

    I have a feeder just like that. The Carolina chickadees just love the hid in the holes. Mary

    Hi Phillip, I wish they would come to my bird feeder. I grew up in California where there are a lot of them. Enjoy!

    Mary, isn't that the greatest feeder? The birds love it.

    I use to see Redwings all the time growing up in Wisconsin, but have not seen any since coming to NC many years ago.
