White tail Deer winter 2019

 
 
 

There is Only One . Winter White Throat Sparrow

White throat Sparrow got stuck here for the winter. It has made it through a three day stretch of minus 25 - 30 degrees F. Coming up is another stretch .  It ate for 25 minutes as darkness falls.
 
 
 
Sometime it has company with hare and partridge ..
.at that time of night no grosbeaks, blue jays or siskens are swarming the feeder area.

New Year 2019

Happy New Year
Thank you for reading or looking.
New readers can sort through the Blog posts by using the top left corner "search Box" for subjects such as "Lynx" and it will pull up MOST of the Lynx photos. Sometimes I use strange titles for my posts and the subject is missing. Topics range from forestry to pesticides, Nipigon River and birds and flowers(wild). Also Butterflies and moths.  Early Posts of 2011 are essays. Also my artwork , the latest being under "Ten Finger Art".
 
I think my Blog is progressing fairly well. 37,404 Pageviews since 2011. This past year 4,213 Pageviews.

New Feeder Station

 
 
 
I set this up to feed the winter stranded White Throat Sparrow. However, sometimes its breakfast is delayed.
