Then Came the Snow
This male bluebird has some scapular feathers that are always out of place. We call him "Shoulders."After the ice storm on January 27, we had a series of snowstorms. Fortunately the cold temperatures meant the snow was light and drifty. A wet and weighty snow would have meant much more damage to trees and more downed powerlines. As it was, the ice had already knocked out our power—we'd be out a total of three days—and canceled a week's worth of school for the kids.
Here are a few more images from the snowy aftermath of the ice storm.
Everyone's home was covered in ice and snow.
Even the clip art bird on our Birding Area sign looked cold.
Fluffed up against the cold wind, a female bluebird stares me down. The feeders needed a refill.
When horrible weather sets in, we let our guard down and permit even the hoggish European starlings to get a meal.
