Today was the first day it was mild enough to venture down to the estuary....if you can call minus double digits warm....
at least the winds had died....
a little bit of open water still in the first bay....but ice everywhere else
the flats are a sheet of white....
there were a few Mallard against the far shore...
here is one pair....
there were a few Red-wing Blackbirds down there...
also some House Finch, but I think most of the rest of the species are hanging out in yards, like ours that have feeders.
this female Hairy Woodpecker has moved in.
and we are over run with Varied Thrush....
have a number of Red-breasted Nuthatch
and Brown Creeper....all visitors that haven't been usual other years.
We've even had a Red-breasted Sapsucker!
