Readying for winter

For some weeks now, the activity at my feeders has been down. On Saturday, I decided to replace some of the seed that did not seem to be popular and fill the feeders up again. Since that time, the temperatures have really dropped, and we even had snow flurries yesterday. I saw more birds than I've had in weeks as they have finally started stocking up for the cold winter months ahead. This sweet Tufted Titmouse was sitting in the crepe myrtle holding a seed with the sun shining on it's breast and I was lucky enough to get this nice image.

That is a perfect picture, worthy of framing I think! I've never seen a titmouse. They sure are cute.
