Happy Faces :-)

Icicles on the dome
Does this look like a happy bird?......

......how about this one???

"I think my butt is frozen to this branch".

The "polar bear club" having an outing in the birdbath......brrrrrrrrrr!

I could barely see it.... A hawk hiding in the frozen branches.....but they saw him and scattered.

White-breasted Nuthatches seem to take everything in their stride.

"Where's the microwave???.....I need to thaw this out!"

I had squirrels all over trying to get some food. Actually, I realized that their presence on the deck was keeping the cowbirds and starlings away from the back of the house and a few birds were getting seeds along with them.

Yellow gold and white gold

The wrens were around most of the day on the deck.

It manages to peck some suet out even with all the ice. I need peanut butter for those holes in the post!

"Peanut butter sounds good.....where is it???"

Two titmice enjoying a squirrel free feeder for a while.

Another "happy face"

A surprise visitor....the Brown Thrasher.....I usually only see them in the spring. I think he came too early.

Cardinal on ice.

I have lots of photos of cowbirds and starlings, but will skip those. They hung around all day. I saw one try to take that tray feeder away from the Red-Bellied woodpecker....the woodpecker won round #2 also :-)
Snapped photos in between watching Federer beat Rodick in the Australian Open. Ought to be a great final coming up soon!
