Brrrrrrr!!!!

is for

AMERICA and ANTARCTICA

Female Eastern bluebird this morning on the fig tree.

She looks cold and almost grey - I feel a lot like that also.

I'm not outside despite the sunny day - just too cold.

Not complaining though as it's just warmed up above freezing here.

 I was just advised the US mid-west is

 much colder than Antarctica. Chicago-area residents' teeth will

chatter today if they head outside in -15F temperature. 

They could head to Priestley Glacier, Antarctica where it will reach

 a balmy 6F today!!!

Me on a sunny 33F morning in Antarctica - January 2013

Stay warm and safe all my mid-west friends. . . . . . I still have the overly

 padded 'make you look fat', Canada Goose down jacket and cold

 weather gear. . . . . .if you want to borrow!
