Right Outside my Window

In a south facing window, herbs spend the winter inside.

On one of our recent snow days, I noticed something red right outside my window. A sleeping male cardinal with his feathers puffed against the cold.

He is resting on a crape myrtle branch that sits among mahonia bushes. I guess our house and the evergreen leaves offered some protection.

I hope you are having a warm and colorful winter! What are you seeing right outside your windows?
