With the recent winds blowing the ice away from shore, the sunrise pink color was able to reflect off the water this morning on the south shore of Lake Superior.

Another sub-zero day had the birds coming for bird seed very frequently and they were a bit impatient waiting for me to refill the feeders. The other day I had seven chickadees lined up on the rope where the feeder was hanging as I was filling it, but today they waited in the tree which provided some protection from the cold winds.

With a string of cold days this month and more chilly days in the forecast, sometimes it is hard to believe small streams like this one are not frozen over. I would rather fish from the edge of this stream than to stand on the frozen lake surface and fish through a hole cut in the ice.
Still Flowing
The moon has been lighting up the snow at night, but it always seems like the days around the full moon are always too chilly for a moonlight stroll. The sunny day was chilly too so the some of the birds might want to check out the birdhouses for some protection from the cold wind chills.
