Here just south of Collegedale we ended up with just over 3 inches of snow
before it started sleeting and then raining.
 
On the down side this kind of weather brings more Starlings to the feeders
and just recently we had a flock of Grackles join us. The result is that
it's difficult for the other birds to get in edgewise. 
 
On the up side we have had more Towhees both last night just before dark and
today than I have ever seen on our property and we had a male Pine Warbler
eating sunflower kernels at the main feeder.
