I am not a person who has consistently fed the birds, but what times that I have, the are the most hungry when it is very cold. I have tried to get out there and keep the three different feeders up to snuff but it is a miserable time to get out there. Our temperatures have risen to -6 degrees. The sun is shinning and that is good, but it is too cold to stay out there for very long.
There is one set of cardinals in this neighborhood and I am honored to have them stop by once in a while.
Today the cardinal is waiting patiently for the squirrel to get his fill. I have a goal to create a squirrel feeder so they will leave my bird feeders alone.
I wanted to share this photo even though it is off theme. It still isn't a perfect focus, but I am working on it.
I am hoping all of my friends out there are keeping yourselves safe and warm. I see people everywhere having trouble with getting their cars started and I feel fortunate my car is doing a good job of starting.
Everyone be careful out there and stay warm. Thanks for spending time with me.......

I have been cold for months! Love the warm house picture, and feel like the bird :).
Larry, if you find out what will deter the squirrel please let me know. It's an ongoing battle here too.
I am so jealous..a Cardinal..how lucky you are!! :)
Oooo, a Cardinal! I love those birds. We have ONE elusive male that comes quick to our apple tree and leaves right away, only about once a week or less...he never comes to our feeder, so I haven't been able to capture him with my camera.
They are so beautiful!
