=EF=BB=BF Sounds reasonable Dave

<div>
In fact I think that is the recipe for
</div>=20
<div>
ice wine - an expensive luxury which they never
</div>=20
<div>
advertised well enough for to temp me to try - buy.
</div>=20
<div>
Of course in winter animals and birds need energy
</div>=20
<div>
be it from body fat or what the can find.
</div>=20
<div>
Come spring protein becomes important with the nesting
</div>=20
<div>
season just ahead. Hence the importance of Stone Flies - little
</div>=20
<div>
known to naturalists but no so to birds.

Enjoy Ground Hog day!

Hi Paul,             =

<div>
   Shortly after the BFM Hospital in Kentville was close=
d I saw birds feeding on small apples (probably ornamental Crab being =
former Hospital grounds but relatively large ~ one cm diam.) late in the wi=
nter. The apples looked quite disgusting but I tried one and found a c=
oncentrated sweet syrup, with no trace of bitterness, segregated from =
the ice and frozen brown pulp.
</div>=20
<div>
    I suspect this syrup is the main attraction, not bec=
ause it is sweet but because of the high energy content.

here on the South Shore Donna we have an apple

tree covered with frozen apples. Lately the Waxwings - Cedar -

and the Robins have been feasting on it.

Seems they like it best on a cold day.

I hope your cold is better soon.
