The weather is getting cold again and the winds are still blowing just not as gusty as they have been .
Miggs and I went for our walk this morning . I heard a sound that I haven't heard since last year at this time , It is a distinct sound from way up in the sky .
Tundra Swans .
Every year they migrate to a small conservation area on the outskirts of the small town of Aylmer Ontario a 20 min drive from us . This year I plan to go there to get some close up shots of theses beautiful birds .
Then we have the Blue jays that just love to hog the feeders lol !
The Downy Woodpeckers have been loving their suet's and chowing down for hours every day !
Mr Cardinal has been popping around every now and then but doesn’t seem to stay long , They seem to disappear for a bit in October and then return by late November .
Miggs is still Miggs no matter what season it is lol . She has grown her shaggy coat now for the colder weather from the shocking shaved summer look lol !
The air now has that arctic feel and smell to it after a week or two of strange flip flop weather and warm temps . I think old man winter is making his way here now for a longer stay !
Sure feels like it !
Until next time .. Have a good day !

We have had flip flop weather as well. Love Miggs! Your photos are so pretty! I would love to see a tundra swan!
Great photos of the birds in your backyard! I wish we'd get a cardinal here. It would be great to see all those swans flying over! I hope you get some photos of them up close. Have a great week.
Love all your pics! Can't wait to see close-ups of those swans! Those guys look huge!
Hi there, I can't wait to see the Swans-I bet they are beautiful. I also love the Cardinal-so very pretty. Are days are getting colder and colder; snow is supposed to hit on Thursday. Hope you are staying warm.
Hugs, Noreen
Apparently we are due for wintery days ahead over here in England, so it must be even colder for you! I am sure that all of your birds are appreciative of the food that you put out for them. xx
You have wonderful post on your blog. I always enjoy them.
That Cardinal is a beauty.
It was 16 here this morning. I agree, Old Man Winter is moving in!!! brrrrrrrrr
Such beautiful pics. Love the cardinal one.. I haven't seen any of them yet.. Sure hope I do.. xo
How amazing to see the tundra swans in flight! Thank you for stopping by today. I'd love to have you join us for the December Note Card Party. It's a lot of fun!
Sounds like we are having similar weather. I am getting ready for some snow here. Can't wait.
Cold weather has not made a return here for a couple of weeks now, but then I wish it would because the unseasonably warm fall is not what I like. A chill in the air would be a welcome relief.
