Spent over an hour outside, shoveling and trying to get things clear before everything froze into a skating rink. After we finished, I saw a few juncos hanging around, trying to scrounge something to eat. I opened the door to throw a handful of seed out into the snow (and some corn for the dang tree-rat), and scared them all away. A little later, I looked out the window and noticed that there were 6 or 7 juncos feeding and flying around.
As you can probably tell, it's been a pretty uneventful day. Watched Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory (brilliant!), wrote out some Christmas cards and thank you notes, and uploaded some new photos. The latest: our trip to Florida and a recent family get-together.
