Last Day of Winter Backyard Nature in New Jersey.
Visitors to the backyard, patio birdfeeder, and patio birdbath: Mourning Dove, Turkey Vulture, Tufted Titmouse, Carolina Wren, House Finch, White-throated Sparrow, Song Sparrow, Northern Cardinal. The Carolina Wrens must be building a nest as they are spending a lot of time collecting small twigs.
Daily backyard visitors. Individual images in the slideshow are available in my PhotoShelter Gallery.
Late in the afternoon the birdbath warmed up enough for a Song Sparrow to take a bath. It is still cold enough at night for the birdbath to freeze over.

Lots of Purple Crocuses and White Snowdrops blooming. The Daffodils are just about to open.
