Still snowing here, even colder by a whopping 1 degree, and over the course of the day, our bikes, which are resting just outside our sliding glass doors and to right, have beacon e the resting place and sheltered perch and napping spot for no less than 4 mourning doves at a time. Every once in while one will descend to the plates of seed I put out this morning, which the sparrows and juncos have been busily working on, but then back to the bikes!

The wind HAS picked up a bit, so now we are at 10°F(-12C) with a wind chill of -7F(-22C). Funny they have not update the daytime projected high of 24°F it never got anywhere near there, and from the temps to the west of us, doesn't look like it will be going up anytime soon!
