Record setting snowfall here in the DFW area (officially 10" at the house) brought a lot of birds. They were all enjoying the shrubs and our pear trees. More to come... Thanks for looking.

Pretty snow shots Brad... the first robin shot is especially nice... that amount of snow had to be a real surprise, I haven't seen a one shot, 10" snowfall since last winter... crazy!

They are saying, "I flew 1200 miles South after leaving Mitches house, for this?"

If you could fix the snow in the last one that would be a terrific shot, for the bird and perch are so great. Difficult conditions, but well done.

Karen, I think they are hooked up with Netbooks and read POTN, to find out where the berries are, cause those two sure look familiar from up here, in October. :lol:

Nice set. The robin doesn't look too pleased with the snow. Can't wait to see them back up here as a sure sign of spring. Another 4 weeks ought to be right.

Thanks a bunch Dave, It was a surprise! I'm from the Texas coast and seeing 10 inches of snow was an experience.

Your comments are appreciated Levina... I'll try to see if I can fix that.

Thank you Steve. They're loading up on berries for the trip back.
