Snow and birds - The five inches of snow we received last Monday disappeared by the end of the week due to warm temperatures in the 40's and rain on Friday night and Saturday. The rain on Saturday changed to snow around 4:00 P.M. The snow ended by 2:00 A.M., but not after accumulating around seven inches. The strong winds during the night caused the snow in the backyard to be a little wavy from drifting. I measured the snow this morning, and the depths varied from 6-10 inches. It looks like more than the six inch snowfall on Chistmas day. Yesterday afternoon after the snow started, around a dozen Juncos were in the yard along with a lone White-throated Sparrow. I saw the WTSP again this morning. I cleared an area in the driveway, so I could put down some millet and cracked corn, and the birds seemed happy.
