With the cold reaching at least minus 32°F last night, I didn’t think the gray fox would come. I thought it would be deep in snow wrapped up in its tail; but when I arrived this morning, the trail of treats were gone from the steps to the second floor, 
Gray foxand "Eyes of the Night" had this picture of the fox grabbing a piece of raw chicken from the top step a little after midnight. We’ll see if this shy fox will become as comfortable here as others did a few years ago.
Pine grosbeak femaleToday, I got excited when two pine grosbeaks calmly continued to eat just outside my desk window as they watched me grab my camera and snap their pictures, but then I learned that pine grosbeaks are one of the birds that will actually eat sitting on people’s hands like many other northern forest birds will do.
