Chilly and unproductive day today. I feel quite disappointed with myself. I need to stay away from the news and negative social media. It isn't good for my mental health and I end up getting little done. I went for a pretty cold walk with a snow shower. Brrr... I know it's coming but I'm still not ready for it. I also spent too much time just watching birds and trying to keep positive.
I was glad to see this little one coming to my feeder. It is a Red-Breasted Nuthatch and is a winter bird where I am. This is the first time I've had one come to my feeder on a regular basis! I've been watching and taking photos of the birds in my garden for a couple of years now but I have to say that this year they have really kept me going and cheered me up when I've felt down.
Even the squirrels - that I usually find annoying - had me smiling today. This is a Fox Squirrel. They are quite big, eat a lot and seem to not like anyone else eating near to them.
Sounds like winter is already there, Sharon. Love the picture of the squirrel! He looks like he is getting ready for winter!
ReplyDeleteHe is so funny! I just wish he wouldn't eat everything in sight!
DeleteThat squirrel looks really cuddly. I think it's the season for cuddly and cosy things right now. Hope you are keeping warm and safe.
ReplyDeleteDoesn't he? I thought he looked quite fluffy. Hope you are doing well!
DeleteLoved seeing the squirrel, you must have the patience of a saint waiting for the best photo opportunity.
