The temperature hasn't risen above freezing since Saturday's nor'easter. The trees are still encased in white from top to bottom and strained by the weight they must bear in silence. Limbs and power lines are still coming down. I bought a bag of peanuts in the shells and put some out this morning. Within minutes there were more than a dozen blue jays on the scene. I added suet and black sunflower seeds. Chickadees, tufted titmice, cardinals, mourning doves, woodpeckers, and four very rambunctious grey squirrels joined the fray. It's bedlam out there. Christmas time.
