When the temps are in the teens and the flurries are falling here in Georgia, there is only one thing to do – bundle up, grab the gear, and get thyself outside to take pictures!

The sound of running water lures a lot of birds in to the backyard, like these beauties below that showed up for a drink.

Hermit Thrush

Northern Cardinal

Purple Finches

Eastern Towhee

Carolina Chickadee

Of course, a fresh supply of easy to grab and go food is a hit too.

Red-bellied Woodpecker

Yellow-rumped Warbler

Yellow-bellied Sapsucker

Pine Warbler

And there’s always several that are just perching prettily in between their food and beverage partaking.

Eastern Bluebird

Hairy Woodpecker

Purple Finch (female)

And, why not end like we started, with one more Hermit Thrush?

What a wonderful way to spend a weekend morning!
