winter deep freeze 2018




Jan 6, 2018   at 100 pm and it is -11 degrees. For weeks it has been below freezing  and lately below zero. Birds feed all day, deer look for any bits they can find, but the snow is very deep now.

This year's driftwood mobiles are working well for the perching birds like juncos, chickadees, and sparrows.

Woodpeckers are driving me crazy as they peck on the house, really removing quite a lot of wood bits, perhaps since it is so cold. We are hoping the warms temps on sunday, anything about zero would be nice. I think this what it must be like at the poles, north or south, just NOT for 45th parallel.
