Dumpling is Not Impressed

[3KillerBs]

I was too slow with my phone to capture the entire sequence, but I got a few good shots.

It snowed here last night. Here being central North Carolina.

While the other girls went straight for the feeder, Dumpling decided to investigate this odd, white stuff. (Brahmas are, after all, wearing downy boots against the cold).

As I was pulling out my phone she walked onto the snowy area, pecked it once or twice, decided that it was not a special treat food, and turned her back.

Then she pushed her way into the feeder. She's not any more impressed by this southern snowfall than the Yankees reading this are.

No drama for Brahmas!

Snow ? That looks like feather dander.

Yes, this is what passes for snow down here.

We only get real snow once every few years and since the ground never freezes beyond the first couple inches it doesn't last.
