Good morning and Super Saturday ya'll I see blue skies and bright sun. Just waiting for the temps to get up a bit....40's waiting for 60's...and then I'll head to the park for a run. Might even go when it's in the 50's. My hat is off to all ya'll dealing with the cold cold temps. I'm looking forward to getting outside today as the rain will be back next week. We had super yummy hot and sour soup last night made by son. Not sure what the rest of the day will bring. Perhaps some playing, or some reading. We shall see. Whatever it brings to you, I hope it's amazing

Got up to a light dusting of snow this morning - which in my North facing (rear) garden is still sitting there now, at 6pm.. And to step out a door, front or back, all day, could have been likened to stepping into a freezer So I have declined to so do !!

We, too are having a cold snap and are expecting our first snowfall of the year. I'm going out to check on the state of my heated hummingbird feeders; making sure the food is topped up and bulbs still lit.
I think I'm quite ready for another adventure.

Holy cow! Hummingbirds?! Mine fled to Central America on September 5th this year, a full week earlier than usual!
Once again, weeds are my life!

Holy cow! Hummingbirds?! Mine fled to Central America on September 5th this year, a full week earlier than usual! I know seems weird eh, cuz they're such little things. There are actually northern Hummingbirds that live in Alaska. Rufous is the one I can think of off-hand, but I think there are a couple more. They migrate down to our neck of the woods in winter, so not surprised they'd be near a maritime climate.
I feel a lot more like I do now, then when I first got here

Yes. We have Anna's Hummingbirds through the winter here on the coast.
The Rufous Hummingbirds all go south, but the Anna's will stay here because we have mild winters. Unfortunately, if we do get a cold snap, they starve because the feeders freeze, although we do have some winterblooming plants (like Mahonia).
In past years I've used old wool socks with the feet cut off and hand warmers between the sock and the feeder, but then I discovered this website that sells heated feeders. It's a family run business in, I believe, Minnesota, and the feeders are awesome! I've got them everywhere and I've given to my neighbours, so we have some very happy, healthy Anna's roaring around.
We are expecting snow, as I said, and we've had some very clear, cold days, so I'm expecting the regular feeders will freeze tonight.

Good morning! I've had a 3 month old puppy here since Friday. He is absolutely adorable and such a love, but I am so lacking in sleep. Good thing he's so cute! Happy Sunday all!

Such cool info about hummingbirds. I learned something It's a beautiful day her, so I'm planning a hill walk today. I pushed pretty hard yesterday so will drop it back a notch today. Will wait til it warms up just a bit though. Ana, 3 month old puppies are so adorable, but I can imagine that it is very tiring. When is he going home?
