Eating - a matter of life and death

Walking today 3.7km

The temperature fell to -4C last night here, the pond froze over and the cats ran out through the door this morning when we let them out but realised their mistake too late and stopped dead on the mat when the outside air hit them.

For our smaller birds here on days like this they will need to eat 25% of their body weight each day just to stay alive. So our seeds, nuts and fat feeders are very popular from first light until evening, I caught a couple of them on Barbara's home made fat feeders.

If I ate 25% of my body weight each day that would be 20kg ...... !
