No birds eating at the feeder today...

I'm sure they are all taking shelter from the freezing rain.

I don,t know how they survive , when you think how tiny their little bodies are ... They will be hungary when they do come out Mike !

I just read somewhere that the chickadee (probably all of the tit family) is able to lower its body temperature about 10 degrees at night to conserve energy. Maybe they do the same thing in the snow or freezing rain.
