I gave Danny a bath today. He’s all clean and silky. Of course when I took him out this afternoon, he ran straight for the muddy slush. I trimmed some of the fur off his legs. The snow formed big snowballs that stuck in the fur.

It snowed another two or three inches overnight. I had to shovel again today. The sun came out and it was nice. I did some cleaning and fixed the computer desk. The shelf needed a brace. It had broken when it was moved from the storage bin in Vineland to the garage in Vineland. I left it unassembled until I brought it down here. I decided to move it into the bedroom to put the TV and laptop on it. That way, I can see them better from the airbed.

I took the binos out this morning and this afternoon. I thought I’d keep a daily list of what I see.

A flock of robins- I saw a flock this morning and one this afternoon. This morning they were flying over and this afternoon, they were landing in a tree. I don’t know whether they were the same birds.

Juncos aka snowbirds – they are always here
White throated sparrows – they seem to be with the juncos
Turkey Vultures – they too are always here.
Cardinal
Downey Woodpecker
Grackles - another one that’s always here
Mockingbird
I didn’t see but heard Canada geese and blue jays

When doing a bird count for the Audubon Society, if you hear a bird, you can count it.

A big storm is heading this way on Friday. I don’t know if I should head back tomorrow. I intended to go on Friday. I’ll see what the details of the forecast are tomorrow.
