Who knew that birds face the same threat as we humans — house robbers?!
The Carolina Wren’s house of grasses and leaves apparently provides the perfect shopping mall for other birds to procure material for their own nests.

Seems we need a Winter Interlude … a moment to enjoy the incredible beauty of 10 inches of freshly-fallen snow. (I think this is where I admit I am Minnesota born-and-raised.) Rather like the Post Office motto:
Neither snow nor rain nor heat nor gloom of night stays the feathers and the fuzz from eating … and fighting.
