We’ve had a week of unusually warm weather. Daytime highs reached 14C with lows above zero. It has meant most of the snow is gone. It also has brought out some unusual birds. [see below]<\/p>\n

One that I didn’t get picture of is the ruffed grouse which I’ve heard a number of times and actually saw twice this week. I’m thrilled. It’s very hard to find because of it’s camouflage is very effective!As I may never actually get a picture, I will add one from Wikipedia. <\/p>\n

Since bringing Mom’s bird feeder home I’ve really enjoyed watching for birds! So much fun.<\/p>\n
