Bird Bath Snowed Over

Had to go out and defrost the bird bath earlier today. It was frozen over by the snow. The birds appreciated as they visited as soon as they had fresh water. Also had to move the snow on the deck to find the peanut feeder. Took care of the birds today as always. Some of the snow is melting. But the high was only 38 F today. Photo is mine.

@caroldm My feeder is causing lots of activity today. Bluetits really go wild for peanuts.

@CarolDM Now that Kobe is gone, turkeys come into our back yard each day.

I am not sure if the birds would use a bird bath around where I live. there is a small pond near to where I live that they could use.

Maybe so but I enjoy watching the birds come close enough so I can watch therm. And often get photos.

You have alot of snow there. I'm sure that the birds will love you even more then they already did for feeding them so well.

That is very nice of you to defrost the bird bath outside of your home today and gave them fresh water.

@CarolDM You are welcome since my relatives do our part to take care of the outside birds by leaving food for them.

@CarolDM No rain, no sleet or dark of night will keep birds from Carol's free bird bathing service!

Here's what we got. The mountains much more than us. By mid morning it was gone. It sure was beautiful while it was here. I know the birds appreciated your dedication of taking care of them.

Four inches on the deck but it looks like more in the yard.
