A recent March Snowstorm left the family cottage under some serious snow!

Animals - as our daughter Aimee gets excited about at the cottage!
I tried to capture the backlighting of the sun on this lonely perched squirrel
I managed to capture the unique coloring of this yet unidentified golden bird. Any aspiring ornithologists want to take a guess at what this bird is?

Nice pics Garth! We don't have half that much snow here in the Toronto area. In fact, we're having a very early spring here. Our first winter in Canada, and it's been the warmest winter we've had yet. Go figure.
I have no idea waht kind of bird it is, kinda looks like it's related to the finch family, but not really. Good luck identifying it. Maybe get Merv to take a look, he might know.
Well - I think I figured out the bird. A female Pine Grosbeak which would be in the finch family. Of have some shots of the male variety as well which is much more colorful and rather bold pink color. I have a few shots of them on my musings site back in January.
I actually saw Merv not that long ago at a baby dedication for Garth & Tracy's youngest at Red Rock. Good to see the friendly giant again!
