  4. Nice pic! I assume that temperature rading is in "Canadian" and not "American"

  7. kcinnova - yes, spring weather -- YESTERDAY! Today we woke up to snow!

    Missicat - the big numbers on the thermometer are Fahrenheit.
    And nowhere near that high today!

    Geo - thanks!

    Messymimi - He settled right in and ate a lot of sunflower seeds, so I'm guessing he was pretty happy.

    Hilary - the first time I saw a purple finch, I had no idea what it was, but thought it was so pretty! That was many years ago, and sparked my interest in feeding birds so I could watch them.
