As the teacher in the Twisted Sister video classically said... "What are you going to do with your life?"

(The response was "I wanna rock!"

A block of Jarlsberg cheese, a wedge of Irish mustard cheddar, 150g of Genoa salami, a French baguette, and a bottle of Robertson Winery red.

A second hummingbird feeder so we can always have at least one room temperature feeder to cycle out in these sub-zero temperatures.

I can hear the little buzzers squawking around out there, playing King of the Feeder.

I swap the feeders out every three hours or so.

I also left them a plate of cookies and a glass of milk.

No takers yet.

How cold does it get where you live? I'm sort of astonished that there are hummingbirds that far north in winter.

Winters are usually pretty mild here (coldest days vary between 30 and 50 degrees Fahrenheit) but, as is the case with much of the rest of North America, we're currently experiencing a decidedly Arctic blast.

As a bonus, we had an unusually heavy snowfall a couple of days ago that basically shut down this two-snowplow city. No mail delivery, no public transit, no cab service.

Yesterday, on my break from work, I was sitting on a counter stool at the pizzeria gazing out the window as I munched on my slice of Southwestern BBQ chicken pizza slice, when I saw three huge peahens crossing the road--halting what little traffic there was--and come and plop themselves down right in the middle of the sidewalk in front of my window, forcing pedestrians to walk around them (even as they took quite a few photos with their phones). The big birds seemed not to have a care in the world while simultaneously appearing to be starving.

The unusual weather puts a strain on the local urban wildlife, from raccoons to squirrels to deer to the rich variety of birds, including seagulls, pigeons, starlings, chickadees, warblers, eagles, ospreys, and hummingbirds.

I guess we try to help where we can.
