Female downy woodpecker puffed up against the extreme cold and winds while trying to eat from our birdfeeder

It was 8 F (-13.33 C) when these were taken. All the birds were fluffed up against the cold and wind as they snatched a meal from our birdfeeder.

Google Translate says this can be rendered in English as “It is SO cold! Doesn’t anyone have a heating pad sized for a sparrow?!”

It’s unusual to see yellow-bellied sapsuckers in our area at all, but the extreme (3.7 F/-15.72 C) has them exploring every nook and cranny for food for the second day in a row.

It’s brutally cold this morning - (3.7 F/-15.72 C) but the woodpeckers are busy in the trees carving out any kind of breakfast they can find from the trees.

Frigid days like today bring out the downy woodpeckers more reliably any other.

It’s a frozen-solid-birdbath kinda morning here. 28 F (-2.22 C) when I got up and it was probably colder overnight.
