Birdbath February 1, 2026

Brisk northwest winds brought more freezing weather to Florida and sloshed the water in this birdbath, leaving an icicle dangling on the downwind side. The birds were not impressed; one dejected crow just gave me a dirty look from its frozen surface and then flew away.

I found a way to thaw out a hose, remove the solid ice from the bowl and then fill it with much warmer water. I invited the crow back, but I don’t think he was listening.
