This photo was taken just days before the snow storm hit, in the middle of April.
Such a lovely, warm and sunny day.
Critter of the Day: finch on a lilac branch

Critter of the Day: hidden blep
Critter of the Day: angry bird!
I wouldn’t want to meet this purple finch in a dark alley. He looks like he’s ready to peck someone’s eyes out!

Critter of the Day: stealth blep
Critter of the Day: now that’s a mouthful!
Critter of the Day: joyful laughter
Critter of the Day: I see your bones
This lone deer that sometimes visits looks terribly hungry.
We can see her bones…
Despite the severe cold this past winder, due to the unstable polar vortex, none of the deer we have had visit our feeding station looked to be going hungry, except this one. It may be due to illness or parasites, too.

Critter of the Day: tasty!
This photo was taken the day after the storm blew in, at the beginning of April. As you can see, the snow was already melting away!
Which meant it was easier for our little buck here to find some tasty feed!

Critter of the Day: let me have some!
This photo was taken on April 4, after the storm had passed. The feed left for the deer was covered, but they could still find it!
With these two, the young male comes right in, while his mother hangs back, watchfully, before joining him. This day, it meant he had time to find one of the piles of deer feed already, and she just pushed her way right in there!
I leave about 6 or 8 piles, but they hadn’t found the other ones, yet. :-D
