I had the day off, needing to ready the house for Thanksgiving. I cooked and cleaned and caught up with the laundry. George mopped the floors, cleaned the ceiling fans, and carted off some extra stuff to the Salvation Army. At the end of the day, it seemed a good day’s work was done. I think we can relax now and look forward to having company.
Not wanting to waste a weekday’s bird activity, I peeked out back as often as I could. Here are some of the visitors.
This house finch appears to have eye disease.
The daily squirrel count seems to be three. This one scurried to the top of the tree, and stayed there for the longest time.
Late afternoon the snow started.
Five juncos took turns at the tray feeder, poking around in the new snow to get to the sunflower seeds.
It’s still snowing lightly, as we settle in for the evening.
