It's a Winter Wonderland, in March?

After all the cold weather we've had, it Finally snows but in spring ? what next to come a Tsunami? a Hurricane? and maybe a few rare birds or two, well we'll just have to wait.

This Morning (the 13th) before school I decided to take a few photos before the snow melted, hoping to get a good picture of a bird or two in the cold weather.

This reads "Its a winter wonderland"

 

This is our most common garden visitor "Black Sheep"

happily eating all my bird seed!

A "Cold" Craw

 

A very blurry Snipe, I find that its the hardest bird to photograph

because they blend so well into their surroundings
