Some really lovely shots there. Makes you wonder how they get by in that sort of weather.
Its cold here too, but not that cold. I have to remember to wear gloves as the cold metal of the tripod and camera draws the heat out of the fingers. But I guess you have got used to that.
Thanks for posting the images it is good to see them. Now where's the fire:smile:.

Some nice photos there. I was in Chicago last week enjoying some of these same birds we don't get out in California such as Black-capped Chickadee, Blue Jay and Cardinal.
