Next, the female of the species. Not nearly as colorful as the males. These two just captured my mood perfectly.

Fast forward to today. Heard a familiar racket as I was walking past the same bedroom window. The meteorolgical snow is gone. The biological snows are not. Here's a quick indoor shot of the noise-makers.

Stepped outside to capture part of the flock. I love to listen to the racket they make, talking to each other all at once. Without the noise, and from a distance, there are so many of them, you could mistake them for left behind snow (of the meteorological type).

As I turn to walk back inside, the sun breaks through, finally! I hear another group coming in to join the crowd. Aim the camera skyward for one last shot, before heading in to the warmth of my shelter/prison. At least someone appears to be enjoying the weather.
I love the pic of the cardinal male. They are so eye-catching. The blue jays up here are the only bits of colour during the winter.
ReplyDeleteKat, haven't noticed any jays around here this winter. hmmm.
ReplyDeleteToday I can hear them making a racket in the front yard. The temps are near 0°C and the jays are a happy lot. lol
