Unseasonably cold weather continues in Pittsburgh though we’ll have a “heat wave” of 26oF today while it’s snowing 2-4 inches. Then the temperature will dip to -7oF by Monday night. Erf!
When Steve Gosser posted this white-throated sparrow on Facebook, many remarked that the bird is fluffed up and frowning! It looks like he’s tired of winter.
I agree.

Birds have such a way of looking totally put out. I can’t help wondering if the expression “flip someone the bird” bears some of its use to the angry bird scowl.
