Three days of record cold temperature, deep fluffy snow and blustery winds earned me a snow day. With temperatures at -14 degrees Fahrenheit, I didn’t want to venture out farther than my own back yard to get a few snowy photos. The backyard birds, in a frenzy to get food to help them stay warm against the bitter cold, proved to be engaging subjects. Best husband, home after knee surgery, snapped the Dark-eyed Junco when I left for the gym, with instructions to “get photos of birds eating on the ledge.” Great shot BH!

Hope the knee heals well for BH. It’s 70 and sunny here but we are all wishing for snow!!
Thanks. He is doing well so far, but he hasn’t had to bend it much yet. Be careful what you wish for Suzanne – we could be sending some of this cold weather your way. Right now, even the southern US is in single digits.
Great shots of the birds, all fluffed out to retain the heat.
Btw – “best husband” – does this mean the best of all the husbands you’ve had…or the best husband that anyone has (which I challenge lol)? Just wondering.
Cold, cold, go away – global warming’s here to stay.
If for that we have to pay – Brr thpft is what I say.
😉
Glad you asked Sandra, as it is a burning question. Best husband is the best of all the husbands I’ve had, but I’ve only had one so far. I hope the count stays at one, as I really don’t want to have to get used to another one after all these years. I’ve had other people ask if there was a “worst husband” and I say “yes, but he belongs to someone else, not me.’
Love your ode to global warming – maybe you should turn it into something more on your blog.
Yep, well done HG’s BH!
Thanks. Maybe he’ll take my job and turn this into BH’s Blog. I better watch out.
That is so sweet. Good wishes to Hubby after his knee surgery.
Thanks LN. He is doing very well so far.
Thanks for the reminder to go fill the bird feeder. Great photos. Maybe I’ll measure my snowfall, too.
You probably should measure your snow – then you can brag about how much you have!
Well done to your husband. The pics are gorgeous. Hope the knee heals quickly. 🙂
Thanks. He is doing very well so far.
