The last batch of fluffy light snow caught in the treetops. The local mob of starlings appeared to be "snowbathing" in the top of the elm across the street. They were tossing the snow on their feathers and fluffing and preening just like they had gotten out of a water-filled birdbath. I've never seen them do it before, although my chickadees like to "leafbathe" after a summer shower.
The best part about it is that when I looked at the picture closely, the tree buds are beginning to swell as spring creeps closer.
