Chickadee

We want to wish everyone a very Merry Christmas with some photos of winter critters that frequent our house around Christmas. Chickadees are some of the most frequent winter birds coming to the feeder and also the cutest.

Pine Grosbeak

Our home lies far enough into the boreal forest to have pine grosbeaks as regular visitors.

He is on the chase. His unusual chest markings stand out against the rest of his fur.
