The backyard was pretty busy in February, with lots of our winged friends looking for food. They seem to hit the feeders more when it's really cold out. Not only birds, but some other furry friends stopped by. Another day below freezing, boy are we ready for spring!

| Mr. Bluebird looks all puffed out here. |
 |
| The cardinal can barely fit on the feeder rail. The house finch has a much easier time. |
 |
| Notice the Carolina chickadee with a big seed in its mouth. Lesser goldfinches eat too. |
 |
| A sparrow gets its fill and leaves. |
 | |
| Here comes a tufted titmouse in for a landing. |
 |
| Well, OK, squirrels need to eat too. The "cone of exclusion" slows them down a bit. |
We have video of the squirrel trying to crack the code of how to get into the bird feeder:
