This shot was taken last week before we got 60 cm (2 ft) of snow. It was cold and these little House Sparrows were gobbling up all the seeds that they could find.

Hello, It seems the snow makes the birds go into a feeding frenzy. I do not see many house sparrows in my neighborhood. Thank you for linking up and sharing your post. Take care, have a great weekend. PS, thanks so much for leaving me a comment.

Sparrows are the hardiest birds in Canada. I bet they wished they migrated -- why don't they?
ReplyDeleteThey could put one in the poor house.
ReplyDeleteWell, we do have to help them a little in these difficult times for them.

That's another one of those sites that lifts the spirits. I hope they got enough to eat before the second snow arrived.
ReplyDelete60cm of snow is a lot, on top of what you already had. The birds will be grateful for your feed.
ReplyDeleteMy neighbour fed the birds yesterday, minutes later roe deer arrived, so the fed them as well. They ate non-stop for an hour.

ReplyDeleteHouses Sparrows must be the most common birds in North America. I know they are around here. Glad they have found a feeder with plenty of seed.
ReplyDeleteNice to see they are having a snack :)
ReplyDeleteThey were probably even hungrier after the big snowfalls.
ReplyDeleteThe ones at the bottom look like they are taking advantage of the leftovers.
ReplyDeleteSo many of these tiny rascals
ReplyDeleteThere are a lot of them! Were there other bird species at the feeding?
