VERY WINDY...BUT NOT FOR CHICKADEES!
Richelle Hunter
It was quite the day yesterday.....blue sky, sunshine....just an amazing day in March....at least, one may have thought so! It started pretty early and as the day went on, the winds increased to the point of most areas being under a wind warning. Hydro was out in many places, trees were down, buildings suffered damage....so glad it didn't come with much colder weather and precipitation!!
While we left a few feeders up, many were taken down and placed out of the wind to avoid damage. Prior to this, we didn't have too many birds around yesterday, so no harm done. There were a few birds rather daring....including a trio of Chickadees and a pair of Downy Woodpeckers. So crazy to watch this Chickadee holding on while the feeder was swinging in the wind!
