[Maine-birds] Cherryfield Snow Buntings+

Since the power has just come back (for now), I can report that a couple of Snow Buntings came to the feeders this morning! What a great bird to see in the yard. After I sanded the (skating rink-like) driveway and put some seed on it, they moved to it and have been hanging around all day, along with 6-8 others who were here briefly.

This ice storm has made me wonder what birds and small animals can do for food when everything is ice-covered. It seems as though it would be almost impossible for them to get at seeds or whatever.

Also, here's a link I found fascinating about Chickadees:
