-9 and the budgie is still going strong

I've named him Snowcap. I was sure with it being so cold last night, that would be it for him. I was surprised to see him at the feeders yesterday after all that freezing rain and snow and then he appeared again this afternoon. Here's a couple of pics of the miracle bird just after he arrived today.

They're native to Australia, I didn't think he'd survive this long. He's an amazing little bird.

:sad: Obviously he's someone's... or was someone's companion.

I've seen a few signs in my neighbourhood about lost birds :sad:

I hope he finds somewhere to live for the winter.

Try putting a birdcage with some food in it on your porch and see if you can catch the little guy. I would be surprised if he survived the winter loose.
