Br-rr Winter





Even though we didn't get the predicted one to two inches of snow last night, the remainder of what fell a few days ago persists, because the temperature is so frigid here in the south.
The birds are great predictors of approaching cold weather, because they furiously feed to keep their little bodies warm. We make sure to keep the bird feeders filled for them. I snapped images of the two cardinals as they were cleaning up seed from the ground this morning. Because I shot the images through the glass windows in the sun room, using a telephoto lens, a high ISO setting, and no tripod, the photos are very soft-focused.
