My little friend


Well Henrietta, the pheasant must have come on hard times or something--she is not around this fall and now we are into winter. Here is a little guy who comes though. He is a nut hatch. He grabs a seed and goes to the tree trunk and head down cracks the sunflower seed open. He sat on that limb for a long time--I watched him and then went to the other side of house for my camera and thought for sure he would be gone before I got back but he waited. Then he grabbed his seed and flew under the limbs.

I can't see the nuthatch Fran. Is this a game of find the bird??LOL. Beautiful picture though. You know, I love snow too, and will love it more when I retire and don't have to drive to work in it.
