They had some beautiful daffodils at Stop & Shop for $4 this week, so we picked up a pot for Mom. She feels like each is a little Spring sun shining just for her.

It’s a rough day to be a cardinal - soggy and cold in the rain - but it’s a little bit better when you have a birdfeeder at your beck and call.

A stunning full moon tonight over Trumbull, CT.
(It is predicted that we will see a red “blood” moon Tuesday morning around 6:04 AM. But we may have too many clouds by then to see it.)

Red-bellied woodpeckers either look deadly-serious or extremely-silly. There is no middle ground with them.

As soon as the sun came out, the downy woodpeckers were hard at work gathering food. I think they are making up for time lost yesterday and Sunday due to the blizzard!

The winter storm is pretty, light, and ethereal for now. The real blizzard action will start later, reportedly. #snow #snowstorm #ctwx #ctweather #TrumbullCT #Connecticut

I tossed out some popcorn so the birds could fill up before the blizzard. This little squirrel came out to eat and I noticed his bare tail!
Lost a battle, but lived to fight another day.

It's a foggy, misty, rainy day. So, it is challenging to get photos of the birds thru the haze. But our red-bellied woodpeckers are dramatic enough to draw the eye, no matter what!
