Why Don't Birds Hibernate
The school district doesn't think it's safe to go out so school is cancelled. Yet I'm going to have to brave the freezing temperatures and driving snow to go out and fill the bird feeder, which is almost empty. Why aren't those chickadees hibernating like bears? After all, you don't see me having to go out and fill the bear feeder today, do you?

The birds are wondering the same ting about you. They are leaving their warm snow-caves and leaf mounds to get the food you put out or you might not put more out tomorrow. They understand they need to keep you trained.
Well, the birds are fed for another few days. I barely made it though. Braving the inch deep snow and the sub zero (Celsius) temperatures as I put out the garbage and tipped a cup of feed into the feeder. Now for a hot rum toddy, my computer, and a few good books.
