Ahead of the snow

...snow buntings. Flocks of them have been in town for a good week or so. That's unusual for here.



Today a flock visited our yard. They're still here. They don't seem in a hurry to go anywhere.



And they're thirsty things.



Drink while you can, little buntings. By morning the bird bath will be iced over and full of snow. But I think they know that.
