The carpet guy will finish the 3 bedrooms today. Tonight I will be in my bedroom. Living room next week, and perhaps all the floor planking (which is not in yet) next week.

My bedroom, purple carpet padding

Dining room and staging area

More purple padding

At the feeders this morning  I found a Northern Flicker (no photo, though), a large group of House Sparrows (finch-like) and the usual mass of Dark-Eyed Juncos. A new-to-me bird came in and out of my field of vision before I could identify it. That guy was trying to get to the new platform feeder and I expect he will be back. A few photos from this morning:

I just finished a fun birding book, Good Birders Don’t Wear White: 50 Tips From North America’s Top Birders It is a collection of short essays about birding topics: what colors to wear, birding and climate, etc. I read it for free through Kindle Unlimited.

Temps have warmed up enough to walk Tango around lunch time. Yesterday got all the way up to freezing!

All is well.
