And today, temp was 13 degreeswith a 40mph gust... Just look at the top of her head getting blown all over, poor girl.... Besides my 4 feeders, I spread some seeds on the ground to make it easier for them to eat...

That is one pretty bird, Norman, but I have to tell you she looks cold. #2 for me. Good catch.

Thanks Harvey, I get lucky once in a while.... And yes, it was a very cold blustery day today, well below zero with the wind chill... I felt bad for these birds... My bird roost hasn't been touched either...:(

As much as the males seem to stand out, I prefer the females a bit more...
