One Too Many

One week ago today my son and I were gabbing on the phone discussing birdhouses of all things. He went outside to snap this photo and sent it to me. I have seen it many times and many times with birds flying in and out. It’s a beautiful birdhouse that came attached to his house. And in just one week, everything is covered with snow including the birdhouse. His girlfriend spent the weekend with him, but couldn’t leave on Monday morning as she usually does thanks to our snowstorm. She was able to leave today. Hopefully, she can return Friday. We are expecting two more storms. One on Friday and another on Sunday. This is one too many!

I hope some birds can be cuddling inside to be away from all that snow (or are they gone for the winter?). I guess this means a weekend of being snowed in . . . stay safe and warm out there !

@DianneN Well that's a dramatic change! So what's happening with the snow . . . is it the rain that will help to melt it away slowly? Again, things I never see or go through!!!

The winter birds are too large to use it. Soon enough the birds will return to build nests in it. Thanks, but they changed the weather reports. Rain, no snow!

@much2say Rain will lower the mounds unless it freezes.

I know I like it when they get some things right (higher temps) but hate when they get others wrong. It's a perdiction, it's not science.@DianneN

You are right! The other reality is that the weathermen get everything wrong. Just rain tomorrow and no snow on Sunday! Works in our benefit this time around.

Youtube mentioned this birdhouse before. I like the way it blends in with the colors of the house yet your can tell that it's there. So now I should pay that two storms peter out. I would say it's two to many since there one you got already was overkill.

Thank you. There are so many other beautiful birdhouses. I think your prayers are working. Tomorrow we will get mostly rain and the snowstorm for Sunday fizzled out!

I had to take my hummingbird feeder down because the owner saw it and told my landlord to demand that I remove it. Essentially, we're not allowed to have anything on our balconies or entrance ways that make it look like a loving person lives here. My snowpeas (which are growing nicely) could be seen as an act of defiance. I am thinking of moving on.

How awful! We can’t hang clothes or have a bbq grill on our lanai in Florida, but flowers and plants are okay. Lots of rules.

Nice birdhouse. Yes, winter has finally decided to rear its ugly head. We are supposed to get some kind of slop today which is probably what you're getting on Friday. Have a wonderful day.

Just always be prepared with your necessities. Better be ready always because the climate now is so unpredictable when it comes to its moody behavior

That is a nice birdhouse. I think we are expecting rain Friday and Sunday. I would rather have snow..but not two feet! One thing son likes about Brazil is that he sees parrots on a routine basis.

You poor dear. I'm sure Florida is looking cozy about now. I'm so glad I'm finally getting snow today. Something measurable. A good accumulation. I'll take any snow you don't want.

That's a lovely birdhouse. There is a lot of snowstorm there. Stay warm. I am sure you would have already made a list of fun things to do indoors. You are good with that.
