LP08 Posted February 22, 2021 Share Posted February 22, 2021 Just now, mattie g said: Yup. I was just about to post that this winter has really sucked because of the "frozen precip" this year. Watching other folks only 40-50 miles away get raked time and time again makes it even that much more miserable. It's been a crazy Feb. Frustrating for sure, been close to a real nice stretch for us down here, but I'm over the sleet and freezing rain. It's funny, today has the most ice on the trees of the winter lol.

Had to go outside for a short time just a bit ago and first thought was "damn, this is miserable weather." Cold and rain. Gross out. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That dude's lack of self-awareness is mind-blowing, but his newest trick -- tossing in the odious "Sorry about your shutout but better luck next time!!" tagline -- makes navigating his posts even more insufferable than usual.

WinterWxLuvr Posted February 22, 2021 Share Posted February 22, 2021 I have an idea. Maybe MG could help. What if we all submitted our exact lat/long and we made a map that we could all reference for each posters exact location? We could have a pinned thread for it along with elevation maps etc. When reading the posts I often find myself saying wonder where that is.

Robins everywhere. Blue jays occasionally, but definitely not more than maybe a nesting pair at the same time. We've had all kinds of birds at our feeders this winter - probably moreso than any other year. The kids really like watching the birds (and giving them names) in the morning as they descend upon the feeders. Great way to start their day! Oh yeah...we'll get lots of robins once spring gets going (haven't seen a lot yet)! I've seen the lawn just totally covered by them before. Looks either like one of those "happy birthday" gags where someone litters your yard with those pink flamingoes (only with robins)...or something out of Hitchcock's "Birds"!

Lol. LOL! I have heard that cardinals can be quite aggressive and actually "attack" an image or reflection of themselves, thinking it's another bird!!

For those survivors that want to be ready in case of a winter weenie zombie apocalypse. Does that thing shoot sleet pellets?? Or salt?? Might come in handy... Ahhh, the Panic Room catalog. A fine addition to each room, next to the room service menu! I think I've seen you as one of the 3rd party sellers on Amazon, someone named "Lord High Executioner"? I was looking for snow blowers at the time. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We've seen some flocks of robins already, though we see plenty of randoms all year long. Most interesting is when they pick clean the 35' holly tree in my front yard every fall. It's a flock that goes nuts for about a week in November until nearly every berry is gone. They left enough for two or three cedar waxwings who were passing through this year. Pretty soon they'll be queueing up for worms and other critters... 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some of our best selling products are flamethrowers. Our crack team here consisted of residents at first. A lot of trial and error which unfortunately resulted in some getting treatment for minor burns: Eventually we got the formula right and now our snowman insert is a best seller! Even when it snows it’s good to be reminded the torch is never that far away.

mattie g Posted February 22, 2021 Share Posted February 22, 2021 I'll say this...the end-of-season map is going to lay bare how utterly frustrating this season has been for those within 10 miles NW of 95 - at least those of us in VA. I don't think the grass on my front lawn has been fully covered once, and I actually cut it down pretty low for the last cut of the season. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
