With temps in the single digits here (don't even ask about the wind chill factor!), staying warm and snug indoors is tops on my list!
I snapped these pics as we were getting blasted with snow today, all from the comforts of our nice warm sunroom.
We love feeding the birds. Not only do we have multiple feeders, but even a heated birdbath!
So I imagine our backyard is the most popular in the neighborhood!
We've been fortunate to have 5 pairs of cardinals visit each day. They are just gorgeous, especially against the white snow.
The pine tree that you see is actually our Christmas tree. Hubby puts it out each year to provide much appreciated shelter for the birds.

Look closely at the above shot. There is a little red squirrel sitting beneath the gazebo feeder, feasting on the fallen seeds. He seems totally oblivious to the snow!
A pretty female cardinal and purple finch are waiting and watching for an open spot at the feeders.
Isn't he the cutest?
The birds really love having fresh water. Just look at those icicles!
This little guy was out for the longest time. He was so cute all dusted in snow!
Cardinals are one of our very favorites.
I was so excited to capture a shot of a male cardinal in flight (below).
Notice him in the center upper portion of the photo.
And another cardinal in flight, below!
And where does Katie hang out during snow day?
Why, perched on a window ledge in the sunroom, of course!
Not only does she enjoy watching all of the wildlife in the backyard, but she loves soaking up all of the heat from the registers directly below the windowsills!
Keep warm and cozy!
