Yesterday was gorgeous, so we popped back out to a different area of Mer Bleu that has quite a few bird feeding stations. We even brought a suet brick for the birds to nibble on as well. We sat and watched bluejays and chickadees flit in and out for some bird seed that someone else had kindly put out for the birds earlier. None would take the suet though.....until we left of course and then we saw two greedy bluejays attack it. We were entertained for over an hour by an intrepid squirrel who lived in the same tree as the feeders. He chattered at us for standing too close to his home. Once he got used to us, he crawled into one of the feeders and had a feast.

Now for the big news. Chris has started her own blog called "Caveside". I have a link to it in the right margin. Given that I am spending the winter in sunny and warm Florida, she thought it might be nice for all our friends to vicariously experience a cold and snowy Ottawa winter. Check out her blog. She is promising lots of pictures of snow!
