COLDER WEATHER, CHECK & FILL FEEDERS
Richelle Hunter
While we’re not as cold as some places in the country, or in the province, it is fairly chilly and expected to stay this way for a bit. Just a reminder following the rain earlier this week to make certain that your seed didn’t get wet in your feeders. If it did, it could now be frozen and will not be flowing properly. As well, clear deeper snow from below feeders so those that feed from the ground can get to the seed that might be there. If possible, place feeders where they might have more protection from cold NW winds. As usual, we have propped our Christmas tree beside a garden tree so that it offers a little extra shelter near some of our feeders.
