Blue Jay on a Snowy Day

Image
Like much of the US this weekend, a winter storm blew through our small town.  Our accumulation was probably about 4 inches each day.  Maybe 12 inches total?  We had power and plenty of snacks, so minimal inconvenience for us.   'Sending a shout out to all the road crews!  Your hard work is appreciated!

With temperatures below zero and a quite a bit of snow for our area, I stepped outside with my camera for just a few minutes.  Bird feeders were filled and then I sat quietly on our back porch hoping for feathered visitors.
