Adventures in Birding

#29 and cold weather

It's been slow birding due to the weather. Temps are in the single digits (F) but it feels more like negative teen temps with the wind chill! So I'm stuck inside birding at my feeders, which I really enjoy, too, but it doesn't give me much opportunity for new species.

I did see #29, White-throated Sparrow   yesterday at my feeders! I've been waiting to see one because they tend to hang out with Dark-eyed Juncos, and I have plenty of those!

It looks like Saturday and Sunday are going to be just as cold. Monday's 33 forecast will feel warm compared to what it's like right now outside!

Local birding groups are starting to plan bird walks. There's one on January 27th that I hope to join. It's in a neighboring county. My sister and I are currently the top #1 and 2 birders in that county! We went out on January 1st and saw a lot of different species, so we got the early lead. We'll enjoy it while we can because we won't have it for long!
