I have the feeling that we are going to have a short winter this year. I see more and more birds coming to my feeders and some plants have green shoots starting to show up.

I hope I’m right because I want warmer days and to be outdoors. After living most of my life in the Northeast where it gets very cold every winter, now I’m getting Winter phobic. I don’t like cold weather anymore!

Besides, cold weather is depressing, at least for me now.

I’m bringing you some more bird close-ups for today.
