Bird buffet

We got more snow here in the District They Call Columbia—a dusting, pretty much, although enough to cause schools to close.

And a few dozen others. In the first hour after I refilled the feeder yesterday afternoon, the level of seed went down two inches. They’ve almost emptied the 15-pound sack of Fine Tunes I laid in over the holidays.

So I’m glad another 15-pound sack is coming from Amazon today.
