One of those polar bear plunges we hear so much about?


Quick post on my way out the door. I was about to lower the blinds when I saw this. Not the greatest quality picture, through the window and blocking the flash, but it will have to do. Who would have thought birds would take baths in winter? This pine grosbeak was shaking and fluffing up in the puddle caused by the rain. I sure hope he dries out before it freezes.

Saw a new bird today, too. Some kind of sparrow I think. Heading for the books.

UPDATE: About that sparrow. Turns out it was a redpoll. They just don't look the same when there is only one of them. Now there is a bunch of them around the feeders (12/6/11)
