Thanks. Sometimes you do not see these birds until they pop their heads out of the snow. #1087459

Very cool photo!!! We have them around here but have never been able to see anything like this. Excellent detail and great exposure with the snow. #1087477

This is very cool. It looks like the poor little guy is buried in the snow. Not being from a snow area I have never seen or heard of one of these. #1087562
